What is the conversion rate from Toujeo to Lantus or Basaglar?

50%
60%
80%
100%

The correct answer is: 80%

Toujeo and Lantus/Basaglar are both long-acting insulin medications, but Lantus and Basaglar are biosimilar versions of each other. This means they have a high degree of similarity, but they are not exactly the same. For this reason, the conversion rate from Toujeo to Lantus or Basaglar may vary depending on the individual and their specific insulin needs. Option A, B, and D are incorrect because they suggest a specific rate that may not apply to everyone. Option A and B are also quite low, as a 50% or 60% conversion rate would indicate a significant decrease in insulin dosage, which may not be appropriate for all individuals. Option D is incorrect because a 100% conversion rate implies that the two medications are completely interchangeable, which is not always the case. Therefore, option C is the most accurate answer as it allows for some variation in the conversion rate based on individual needs. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper guidance on the conversion from Toujeo to Lantus or Basaglar.
