Hello Cathy Cosentino!
Lantus (Insuline Glargine),has manny side effects like:
anxiety
fast heartbeat
blurred vision
confusion
headache
tiredness
nausea etc,but not constipation and bloatting....
I think may be you had any malnutrion...depending of what you ate...
You should be careful to eat manny fruits,vegetables..and to drink many liquid...
Don't eat bananas,appels,fried food etc that stimulate your constipacion.
I hoppe you are good and I wish all the best to you !
