# Sanofi Patient Connection Guide: How to Get Soliqua at Low or No Cost ## About This Program The Sanofi Patient Connection is a prescription assistance program designed to help uninsured and underinsured patients access Soliqua (insulin glargine and lixisenatide) at reduced or no cost. Soliqua is a combination medication used to treat type 2 diabetes by helping your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively. ## What is Soliqua? Soliqua is a unique two-in-one injection that combines: - **Insulin glargine**: A long-acting basal insulin that provides steady blood sugar control throughout the day - **Lixisenatide**: A GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps your pancreas release insulin when needed and slows digestion Together, these medications help improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes who need more than one medication. ## Who Can Qualify?
