between insulin glargine preparations.
l NATIONAL FUNDING/ACCESS DECISIONS
Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC) decisions
The Scottish Medicines Consortium has advised that
Lantus ® preparations (April 2013) and Toujeo ® (August
2015) are accepted for restricted use within NHS Scotland
for the treatment of type 1 diabetes:
. in those who are at risk of or experience unacceptable
frequency or severity of nocturnal hypoglycaemia on
attempting to achieve better hypoglycaemic control
during treatment with other insulins
. as a once daily insulin therapy for patients who require a
carer to administer their insulin
It is not recommended for routine use in patients with
type 2 diabetes unless they suffer from recurrent episodes
of hypoglycaemia or require assistance with their insulin

Diabetes mellitus, diagnostic and
Reagent strips are available for measuring for glucose in the
urine. Tests for ketones by patients are rarely required unless
they become unwell—see Blood Monitoring.
Microalbuminuria can be detected with Micral-Test II ® but
this should be followed by confirmation in the laboratory,
since false positive results are common.
Blood glucose monitoring using a meter gives a direct
measure of the glucose concentration at the time of the test
and can detect hypoglycaemia as well as hyperglycaemia.
Patients should be properly trained in the use of blood
glucose monitoring systems and to take appropriate action
on the results obtained. Inadequate understanding of the
normal fluctuations in blood glucose can lead to confusion
Patients using multiple injection regimens should
understand how to adjust their insulin dose according to
their carbohydrate intake. With fixed-dose insulin regimens,
the carbohydrate intake needs to be regulated, and should be
distributed throughout the day to match the insulin regimen.
Self-monitoring of blood-glucose concentration is
appropriate for patients with type 2 diabetes:
. who are treated with insulin;
. who are treated with oral hypoglycaemic drugs e.g.
sulfonylureas, to provide information on hypoglycaemia;
. to monitor changes in blood-glucose concentration
resulting from changes in lifestyle or medication, and
. to ensure safe blood-glucose concentration during
activities, including driving.
In the UK blood-glucose concentration is expressed in
mmol/litre and Diabetes UK advises that these units should
be used for self-monitoring of blood glucose. In other
European countries units of mg/100 mL (or mg/dL) are
It is advisable to check that the meter is pre-set in the
If the patient is unwell and diabetic ketoacidosis is
suspected, blood ketones should be measured according to
local guidelines. Patients and their carers should be trained
in the use of blood ketone monitoring systems and to take
appropriate action on the results obtained, including when
