The term, meaning fear of reptiles, is an amalgam of Greek, not Latin. Herpeto = from herpeton, which means reptile, or more literally a creeping thing. In turn herpeton grew out of the verb herpein which meant to creep.
Basaglar is biologically similar to Sanofiâs basal insulin Lantus (insulin glargine), including the same protein sequence and a similar glucose-lowering effect. While the FDA does not call it a âbiosimilarâ drug for regulatory reasons, it can essentially be thought of as an alternative form of Lantus.
Insulin detemir (Levemir) and insulin glargine (Lantus) SHOULD NOT be mixed in the same syringe with ANY other drug or insulin. To mix two insulins, such as insulin aspart (Novolog) and insulin isophane (NPH) remember you must draw up the clear insulin first. So first, you roll the bottle of NPH (the CLOUDY insulin) to mix it.
