3. Untethered regimen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Untethered_regimen

   Slow-acting insulin such as Lantus or Levemir can be used for a large portion of the basal insulin needs, and the pump basal rate program can be used to fill in the remaining need. Lantus injected once daily is one back-up for pump users, but it can be a real benefit for some insulin pumpers who tend to develop ketoacidosis quickly. [citation ...

4. Insulin glargine - Wikipedia

8. Injector pen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injector_pen

   Many insulin analogs and GLP-1 agonists for diabetes treatment are available as injector pens. [2] As with insulin vials, some insulin pens are made with higher concentrations including U-200, U-300, and U-500. Different concentration insulin products may not have the same pharmacokinetic properties as other strengths. [10]
