[QUOTE="therower, post: 1567626, member: 47983"] Hi [USER=404234]@4mum_[/USER] As a lantus user I'll try to give some advice. Obviously don't undertake any changes to your regime without consulting your DSN first. Lantus lasts between 18/ 20 hrs and a lot of users do split there lantus injections BUT it's done over a 12 hr period, for me 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. It took me a while to get my head around it when I was first told to do it prior to doing a DAFNE course ( carb counting) I was taking 24 to 26 units once a day but under the advice of DSN / DAFNE nurse I was told to split into two injections of 15 units each. It needed a bit of tweaking but got there eventually by basal testing as [USER=295621]@GrantGam[/USER] has so kindly provided a link to. It did make a big difference and far more stable sugars. It's obviously something for you to consider. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
