Hi
@dookie .
These units sound like starting units gauged by your dn to see which meal is more insulin resistant to you.
On those units your dn expects your dapagliflozin to do most of the hard work on a morning and peating off as the day prolongs.
I am surprised both routines are being started simultaneously but your dn may have excellent experience with both routines and to save fluctuating insulin routine they have added dapagliflozin immediately. Your hba1c must be very high?
You sound in good hands. Have you been told your dn will call you every few days whilst this new routine beds in? If not they still may call. Have you been given dn's telephone number too?
When are you expected to visit your dn next?
You need to always work with your medical team as we can only tell you our experiences but your dn has your full medical care in their hands. They know more than me, for sure.
In my experience of levemir and novarapid (5yrs ago) I too found smaller changes (e.g 2units at a time) caused smaller risk of hypoing.
This dapagliflozin tablet can cause thrush or water infections but many don't. Also this kind of med can cause dka difficult to detect at a&e. This tablet can show lower bg levels on our meters but still be suffering dka from circulating glucose. Please familiarise yourself with dka symptoms and carry this tablet info in your wallet for emergencies with your new insulin info cards.
When do you start this dual treatment?
