I have been on Lantus for 10 or so years and it was working well, insurance decided I needed to switch to this and it is not working well for me, blood sugars vary from 300+ to under 50 in just a few hrs.

Used Lantus and then was switched to Basaglar because of insurance dropping Lantus. Personally, I think Basaglar is not as effective as Lantus per same dosing. This is the results I have seen and other people might not.
