    Time to split or change basal?

    Sorry to hear about it, that's quite annoying. Before Tresiba, i was on Lantus dosed at night, and just like others mentioned above, towards the end of the evening it seemed to run out. If left alone, my BS would reach 10s to 12s. I haven't touched the basal because i didn't need to...

    Greetings

    Thank you ^^ I'm on Lantus. The current pen is about two weeks old, should not take long before I start a new one. I always keep the basal pens in the fridge. Thanks for the welcome ^^ I'm also on mealtime insulin (Humalog). Blood sugar increases throughout the day. It seems like that on...
