[QUOTE="iHs, post: 1548143, member: 8799"] I haven't used MDI since changing over to a pump but I try to get my basal and bolus to be ok to give me a bg of about 6mmol before a main meal but allow for a rise upto 8.5mmol 2.5hrs later. If I am higher than 8.5mmol post meal, I will use my pump to work out a correction dose for me so that my bg will drop to somewhere between 5-6 mmol by the time the bolus has finished it's action which is about 4.5hrs for me. For MDI users, the 100 rule works fairly well but needs to be based on the basal and bolus being ok. Gary Scheiner has done a good guide as a pdf all about IOB and how to try to prevent insulin stacking......google Accounting for Unused Insulin [/QUOTE]
