“I was tired of too many insulin pens and refills, until I met Max.”
– Carole
Living with diabetes and taking long-acting insulin
Meet the Toujeo® Max SoloStar® pen and put fewer in your future.†
†Depending on your daily dose and insurance coverage, using Toujeo Max may mean fewer pens, fewer refills, and fewer copays each year. Fewer copays does not guarantee savings.
1. Fewer Pens
- Toujeo is the most concentrated long-acting insulin available
- Each unit of insulin is smaller, so you inject less liquid with your prescribed dose. One unit of Toujeo has the smallest injection volume compared to one unit of any other long-acting insulin
- And because Toujeo Max SoloStar holds more units than any other pen, that could mean you’ll have fewer long-acting insulin pens to manage
- That’s part of the value of Toujeo Max SoloStar
2. Fewer Refills
- Max SoloStar holds more units of insulin than any other long-acting insulin pen
- Holds 900 units vs. 300 units in a standard Lantus® (insulin glargine injection) 100 Units/mL SoloStar pen — 3 times as much
- Because Max SoloStar gives you the most insulin units per pen, you may need to refill your prescription less often
3. Fewer Copays
- If you take 50 units of insulin per day, the Max SoloStar pen will last for up to 18 days vs. 6 days for the standard Lantus SoloStar pen (always do a safety test before each injection)
- So you can store fewer pen boxes and take up less space in your refrigerator
- And if you’re using fewer pens you may have fewer refills and associated copays
- With commercial insurance you may pay as little as $0* with the Toujeo copay card. Terms and restrictions apply
4. Maybe Even Fewer Injections
- Dial up to 160 units of insulin per dose with Max SoloStar
- Most pens can dial only half that amount per dose
- So depending on your daily dose, that could mean fewer injections

Do not use Toujeo if you have low blood sugar or if you are allergic to insulin or any of the ingredients in Toujeo.
Do not share your pen(s) with other people, even if the needle has been changed. You may give other people a serious infection or get a serious infection from them.
Before starting Toujeo, tell your doctor about all your medical conditions, including if you have liver or kidney problems, if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or if you are breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed.
Change (rotate) your injection sites within the area you chose with each dose to reduce your risk of getting pitted or thickened skin (lipodystrophy) and skin with lumps (localized cutaneous amyloidosis ) at the injection sites. Do not use the same spot for each injection or inject where the skin is pitted, thickened, lumpy, tender, bruised, scaly, hard, scarred, or damaged.
Heart failure can occur if you are taking insulin together with pills called TZDs (thiazolidinediones), even if you have never had heart failure or other heart problems. If you have heart failure, it may get worse while you take TZDs with Toujeo. Your treatment with TZDs and Toujeo may need to be changed or stopped by your doctor if you have new or worsening heart failure. Tell your doctor if you have any new or worsening symptoms including:
- Shortness of breath
- Sudden weight gain
- Swelling of your ankles or feet
Tell your doctor about all the medications you take, including OTC medicines, vitamins, and supplements, and herbal supplements.
Toujeo should be taken at the same time once a day. Test your blood sugar levels daily while using any insulin. Do not change your dose or type of insulin without talking to your doctor. Verify you have the correct insulin before each injection. Do NOT use a syringe to remove Toujeo from your pen. Your dose for Toujeo may be different from other insulins you have taken. Any change of insulin should be made cautiously and only under medical supervision.
Do NOT dilute or mix Toujeo with any other insulin or solution. It will not work as intended and you may lose blood sugar control, which could be serious. Use Toujeo only if the solution is clear and colorless with no particles visible.
While using Toujeo, do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how Toujeo affects you. Don’t drink alcohol or use other medicines that contain alcohol.
The most common side effect of Toujeo is low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), which may be serious and life-threatening. Severe hypoglycemia may cause harm to your heart or brain. Symptoms of serious low blood sugar may include shaking, sweating, fast heartbeat, and blurred vision. The long-acting effect of Toujeo may delay recovery from low blood sugar compared to shorter-acting insulins.
Toujeo may cause severe allergic reactions that can lead to death. Get medical help right away if you have:
- A rash over your whole body
- Shortness of breath
- Swelling of your face, tongue, or throat
- Extreme drowsiness, dizziness, or confusion
- Trouble breathing
- Fast heartbeat
- Sweating
Toujeo may have additional side effects including swelling, weight gain, low potassium, and injection site reactions which may include change in fat tissue, skin thickening, redness, swelling, and itching.
