Is Toujeo covered by insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cToujeo is covered by many insurance plans, including Medicare plans. It comes in two kinds of insulin pens, Toujeo SoloStar and Toujeo Max SoloStar, and insurance coverage may vary by pen-type,\u201d says<\/span> Carrie Allen<\/span><\/a>, Pharm.D, consultant pharmacist and adjunct professor at the University of the Incarnate Word. \u201cGenerally, insurance coverage varies by plan. In some cases, it is covered by an insurance plan, but your doctor will need to go through a step that requires some paperwork to be filled out before the insurance company will pay for it, a process known as a<\/span> prior authorization<\/span><\/a>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the manufacturer\u2019s website,<\/span> Medicare<\/span><\/a> beneficiaries will pay $35 for a monthly supply of Toujeo with Medicare Part D. Reach out to your insurance provider for questions about your plan, as the cost of Toujeo may vary depending on your plan\u2019s formulary, copay, and deductible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Before getting on <\/span>Toujeo<\/span><\/a>, discuss preexisting medical conditions with your doctor, including heart problems, and kidney problems. Furthermore, present a complete list of all your medications and supplements so they can advise you on how to avoid drug interactions. For example, using drugs like <\/span>pioglitazone (Actos)<\/span><\/a> or rosiglitazone (Avandia), also for treating Type 2 diabetes, with Toujeo may cause heart failure. If you notice symptoms of heart failure, including sudden weight gain and shortness of breath, seek medical help immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most common side effect of Toujeo is low blood sugar (symptoms of low blood sugar include sweating, dizziness, shaking, fast heartrate). Toujeo is also associated with severe allergic reactions, including whole-body rash, fast heartbeat, and dizziness. Seek medical help if you experience these side effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, avoid operating heavy machinery until you are sure of how your body reacts to Toujeo. Toujeo is only for single-patient-use, do not share your pen. Read the <\/span>instruction leaflet<\/span><\/a> for full prescribing information and details on additional side effects.<\/span><\/p>\n
