RESUMEN
Fueled by perceptions regarding Indian dietary patterns and premixed insulin's claim to fame of providing dual fasting and post-prandial control, there was a greater inclination towards using premixed insulins in clinical practice until the last decade. However, the advent of insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100) opened up a new dimension in insulin therapy landscape in India. The data from the last 5 years reveal that Gla-100 has gained more traction among Indian clinical practitioners. Basis evidences that have emerged from various clinical studies, this present review elaborates on certain key issues which have helped Gla-100 carve its own niche and effected a progressive shift in insulin prescription pattern in India.
