YesI've recently changed to Tresiba from Lantus and am finding I drop on a morning around 9am (today 5.6 at 08.30 dropping to 3.9 in the time it took to brew a coffee) I've reduced from 17u to 15u but it still seems to 'trend' that way.
Apart from that it's good insulin and looking at the Libre line I 'think' I could get around it by changing my basal time, probably moving the injection to the morning rather than night as I've done for the last 34 years. One thing I would say is I saw a small difference after 5 days from dropping a unit so hasty changes won't help!
I think I was allowed to drop my basal on a daily basis if it causes hypos.Give tresiba 3 days before making further changes so that the baseline in your body has adjusted.... changes daily aren’t recommended...

I was told to drop by a larger amount for 3 days and then work towards tweaking the dose....
I'd agreeI wasn't really given any information from my consultant and I'm struggling to get through to the nurses - I fly to the states next week so if I can't resolve it by then I'll go back to levemir to avoid anything happening potentially while I'm there!
My consultant has recently prescribed degludec as my long acting insulin but since starting it I've woken up with hypos every single morning. I've been reducing the dose by 1 unit every morning until I've reached 15 units to try and stop this but I know it's very long acting and takes a while to change unlike the levemir. Has anyone else experienced something similar with degludec? Thanks
