[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2334975, member: 372207"] No, it isn't. It's only the insulin glargine (Lantus, (a)basaglar, and Toujeo) holding a risk of bizarre hypo's, not any of the other long acting insulins. I take 84 units of Tresiba at the moment. You say that to your thinking 25 units should be split into 2 for safety. Should I conclude you think I should split my basal insulin over 6 injections? What about people using 200 units of basal? Should they inject 16 times for basal only because you, and not their endocrinologist, think 25 units at once is too much? Please consider the differences between different people and remember what works for you may not be the best solution for everyone else. The only time I have ever had a serious hypo was that one time on Lantus. For the last 3 years my bg's have been managed very well without splitting my dose of long acting, and while I'm very much afraid of Lantus, I found my current long acting insulin to be very stable and predictable, I don't feel it as a risk at all to inject it only once a day.
