I'm taking Lantas glargine once a day after dinner 10 units on my thighs . My thighs seem to swell . Why is that so?..... I'm kharina Barrett from Calcutta , West Bengal, India.

Swelling and weight gain is a listed side effect of Lantus, however, I would definitely recommend speaking to your primary healthcare provider or pharmacist about the swelling. They may have follow-up questions/assessments, and recommendations for you. Hope that helps!
