It will take a few days for it all to smooth out, maybe even up to a week. It's an annoyance - tweaking doses doesn't give you instantaneous results. And yes, the redness is normal, if you're brand new to Lantus it might take your body a little while to get used to it and go away. I've been on it for 4 years and I still get a bit of a reaction every now and then. Just keep watch for other side effects, there are some people that are allergic to the solution.
