Broad coverage of Semglee ® by Express Scripts will help ensure that the many patients on its network who need Insulin Glargine may receive the full benefits of and access to treatment with lower or maintained out-of-pocket costs.

Biocon Biologics co-developed Semglee with Viatris and together they are committed to improving patients' access to sustainable, high-quality and affordable biosimilars. As part of this commitment, Viatris will soon commercialize two versions of its landmark Insulin Glargine injection, the first-ever interchangeable biosimilar approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA): Semglee® (insulin glargine-yfgn) injection, a branded interchangeable product, and Insulin Glargine (insulin glargine-yfgn) injection, an authorized interchangeable biosimilar. Both products will be available in pen and vial presentations and are interchangeable for the reference brand, Lantus®. Semglee will also be included in Express Scripts' Patient Assurance Program.

This dual product approach is intended to ensure that this historic interchangeable biosimilar insulin glargine can reach as many patients as possible regardless of financial circumstances, insurance or channel.
