Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It is an insulin injection, for controle of the blood sugar.
At first lantus is prescribed, it is a long acting insulin, to be filled every time in the syringe.
Novalog- It comes prefilled with insulin and is ready to use in just a few steps.
You simply dial the exact amount of insulin say 3 units, and inject by pressing a button to inject . take three times a day.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
