Type 1 Humalog

It's different for different people so you'll have to find out what the best timing is for you. It can also differ depending on the meal you have.
Let us know how you get on with it!
 
I use humalog how long before a meal should a tack it my surgers go high afther my dinner

I find it to start working after 20 to 30 minutes after a stomach injection and 30 to 40 minutes injected into my upper leg, longer if bringing a high blood down as a correction, I find with my tea (tho I eat fair portions) it works best in 2 jabs for me as I can get a rise 2 to 3 hours after eating (post prandial if we're being posh :p )

If T1 then your basal can effect it too.

Edit, that's a T1 point of view for clarity, I've no idea if that works the same for other types!
