purrteyes (see all reviews)	August 20, 2009 9:59 AM I first tried Lantus Solostar pens when I was in nursing school and my oral meds quit working.

No need to keep cool once opened and is good for 28 days at room temp. Cons: Cost	Works/Has Worked

Crashnot (see all reviews)	August 6, 2009 8:21 PM Blood sugars were fine, but the insulin made me groggy, depressed, and unbelievably lethargic. I had these problems for the six months I took Lantus. They disappeared the day after I discontinued it.	Does Not Work/Has Not Worked
