Basaglar - Overview

Basaglar is a medication used in some people to improve glycemic control in some people with diabetes mellitus. People who might need a Basaglar KwikPen prescription can use Push Health to connect with a local medical provider who can prescribe Basaglar injections when appropriate to do so.

What Is Basaglar?

Basaglar, like Fiasp, Humalog, Lantus, NovoLog, and Tresiba is a medication sometimes prescribed to people who need improved glycemic control in the setting of diabetes. Basaglar contains the active ingredient insulin glargine and, like Levemir, Toujeo and Tresiba, is considered a long-acting insulin. The active ingredient in Basaglar is thought to work by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake in the body, blocking fat and protein breakdown, and glucose production in the liver. Given its long-acting nature, Basaglar prescription medication improves glycemic control through a more convenient mechanism when compared to short-acting drugs with similar actions. Basaglar KwikPen should be utilized in conjunction with diet and exercise to achieve desired glycemic results..

Basaglar - Dosing and Cost

The dose of Basaglar prescribed depends on the health needs of the patient and the judgement of the prescribing medical provider. Basaglar is prescribed to be administered subcutaneously once per day, preferably at the same time of day, at different injection sites. The maximum serum insulin concentration after administration is approximately 12 hours.
