cant say i noticed any change when i started taking it.

id give my body a week or two to get used to the change in medication before worrying about it?

double up your water intake and move..........a lot. Ive taken Lantus at night for a couple years....it did cause some water retention but so does just about anything else you do or take.

Good Luck
