The pens do NOT work well at all. They tend to start squirting medicine all over the place instead of in a nice stream as it should. No satisfaction from questions and complaints about it. Three out of the 5 pen pack malfunctioned. My daughter is a nurse and she is injecting me correctly.

I have only been on it for 1 week. So far it is lowering my sugar slowly with oral meds also. With time I think it will work.

I have been a diabetic for almost twenty years and was very opposed to taking insulin, but I am pleasantly surprised at how easy Lantus is and how well I feel - lots of energy and good blood sugar results. I'm glad I finally listened to the advice of my doctor.
