1 unit of Lantus ≠ 3 units of Toujeo in effect. 1 click of Lantus (0.01 mL) = about 3 clicks of Toujeo (3 × 0.0033 mL ≈ 0.01 mL) in terms of volume of liquid injected.
But medically (by insulin effect): 1 unit of Lantus ≠ 3 units of Toujeo in effect. Even though Toujeo is 3× more concentrated, its pen is designed so that each “unit” gives you the same insulin activity as 1 unit of Lantus — not triple.
