Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Toujeo Max SoloStar Work?

Toujeo Max SoloStar works by providing a steady, long-lasting release of insulin to help maintain normal blood glucose levels throughout the day and night. Insulin glargine mimics the body’s natural basal insulin, helping to regulate glucose absorption and prevent the liver from producing excess glucose, which is crucial for blood sugar control in diabetes patients.



Common Dosages

  • Pre-filled pen: 300 units/mL (maximum dose of 160 units per injection)

Typical Dosing

  • The dosage of Toujeo Max SoloStar is individualized based on the patient’s blood sugar levels and needs. Typically, it is administered once daily, at the same time each day.
  • For insulin-naïve patients, the starting dose is generally 0.2 units/kg once daily. For those switching from another long-acting insulin, the dose is usually adjusted based on previous insulin requirements.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • The treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus in adults.
  • The treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults who require long-acting insulin to control high blood sugar.


Who Shouldn't Take Toujeo Max SoloStar?

  • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
  • Hypersensitivity to insulin glargine or any components of the formulation.


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Always inject Toujeo Max SoloStar subcutaneously into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm and rotate injection sites to avoid lipodystrophy (fatty tissue changes).
  • Do not mix Toujeo with other insulins or inject it intravenously.
  • Store the pen in the refrigerator before first use, but once in use, it can be kept at room temperature and should be discarded after 6 weeks.
  • Monitor your blood sugar regularly and adjust your dose as directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Always carry a quick source of sugar, such as glucose tablets, in case you experience hypoglycemia.


Side Effects of Toujeo Max SoloStar

Common Side Effects

  • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
  • Injection site reactions (redness, swelling, or irritation)
  • Weight gain


Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Severe hypoglycemia, which can lead to confusion, fainting, or seizures.
  • Allergic reactions, such as rash, difficulty breathing, or swelling.


Risks and Warnings of Toujeo Max SoloStar

  • Hypoglycemia: Toujeo Max SoloStar can cause low blood sugar, especially if too much insulin is taken, meals are skipped, or during intense physical activity. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels is essential to avoid hypoglycemia.
  • Hypokalemia: Insulin can lower potassium levels in the blood, which can lead to serious complications, such as irregular heartbeats. Monitoring potassium levels is important, especially in patients at risk.
  • Overdose Risk: Accidentally taking too much insulin can lead to severe hypoglycemia, which is potentially life-threatening.

Interactions with Toujeo Max SoloStar

Common Drug Interactions

  • Oral diabetes medications: Drugs like sulfonylureas or meglitinides can increase the risk of hypoglycemia when combined with insulin.
  • Beta-blockers: These medications can mask symptoms of hypoglycemia, making it harder to recognize low blood sugar.


Common Food Interactions

  • Alcohol: Alcohol can both increase and decrease blood sugar, potentially leading to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.


Alternatives to Toujeo Max SoloStar

  • Levemir (insulin detemir): Another long-acting insulin used to control blood sugar levels in diabetes patients.
  • Lantus (insulin glargine): Similar to Toujeo, but with a lower concentration (100 units/mL), often used for patients requiring smaller doses.
  • Tresiba (insulin degludec): An ultra-long-acting insulin that provides basal insulin coverage for more than 24 hours.
  • Basaglar (insulin glargine): A biosimilar insulin to Lantus, used for long-term blood sugar control.
