The highest capacity basal insulin pen on the market1-5 with double the maximum injection dose of SoloStar in a single injection
The SoloStar pen that your patients know (see study result below)
*A patient’s dose, if previously an odd number, will need to be adjusted up or down 1 Unit by a healthcare provider if switching from a different pen.
†Toujeo Max SoloStar is recommended for appropriate adult patients who require at least 20 Units of basal insulin per day.
‡Once opened, store at room temperature (below 86°F).
§On a unit-for-unit basis.
‖Depending on prescription insurance coverage, using fewer pens per year may allow for fewer refills and associated co-pays.
Study Design: Pen- and insulin-naive T2DM patients inadequately controlled on OADs were enrolled in a 4-week, multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase 3b study to evaluate the ease of use/ease of learning of the Toujeo SoloStar pen. On Day 1, patients were trained on use of the device. Only patients who completed the training and demonstrated a successful injection without assistance were eligible for this study (n=40). Toujeo was injected once-daily in the evening. Patients were titrated to a target SMPG of 80-100 mg/dL. Study limitations: potential bias could have been introduced due to the small population and the study's short duration; however, the study was designed to minimize such bias.8
