Generic for tresiba?

The generic name for Tresiba is insulin degludec.

Currently there is no generic version of Tresiba available. Insulin degludec is a biologic, so any equivalent product would be a biosimilar, and as of now there isn’t a U.S. (or many other markets) FDA-approved biosimilar for degludec.

If cost is the concern, talk with your prescriber about:
- Other long-acting insulins that have biosimilars (e.g., certain insulin glargine products), noting they are not identical to degludec.
- Patient assistance programs or manufacturer discounts.
- Insurance/formulary options and potential switches with proper medical supervision.

If you’d like, tell me your country and I can provide more location-specific info.
