Give your patients the BASAGLAR Experience™
The BASAGLAR Experience offers resources designed to help patients accept, start, and stay on insulin.
Patients may be hesitant to begin basal insulin. The BASAGLAR Experience support resources may help address their initial concerns during the Insulin negotiation phase as well as help reinforce important information at home when Doing it on their own.
In patients with type 1 diabetes, BASAGLAR must be used concomitantly with short-acting insulin.1

SELECT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Changes in insulin strength, manufacturer, type, or method of administration may affect glycemic control and predispose to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. These changes should be made cautiously and only under close medical supervision, and the frequency of blood glucose monitoring should be increased. For patients with type 2 diabetes, dosage adjustments of concomitant anti-diabetic products may be needed.
Hypoglycemia is the most common adverse reaction associated with insulins, including BASAGLAR. Severe hypoglycemia can cause seizures, may be life-threatening, or cause death.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
All insulin products, including BASAGLAR, cause a shift in potassium from the extracellular to intracellular space, possibly leading to hypokalemia. Untreated hypokalemia may cause respiratory paralysis, ventricular arrhythmia, and death. Monitor potassium levels in patients at risk for hypokalemia if indicated.
