Understanding Tresiba:
Tresiba is insulin degludec — multi-hexamer self-association at injection site provides ultra-stable absorption with >42-hour half-life. Flattest basal insulin profile available.
How Tresiba Works:
Insulin degludec forms multi-hexamers in subcutaneous depot — gradually dissociates and absorbs over many hours.
Ultra-long half-life provides 24+ hour basal coverage with dosing-time flexibility (within 8–40 hours acceptable). Flatter than glargine, less hypoglycemia in some trials (DEVOTE).
Form and use:
Tresiba SC injection once daily — flexible timing. FlexTouch prefilled pen, U-100 or U-200 concentrations.
Generic availability:
No biosimilar Tresiba currently. Insulin glargine U-100 (Lantus brand, Semglee interchangeable biosimilar, Basaglar follow-on, Rezvoglar) — different basal insulin, much cheaper, similar clinical effect for most patients.
Warnings:
Hypoglycemia, hypokalemia, lipodystrophy, hypersensitivity.
