[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1602733, member: 295621"] The DIA of Novorapid (or simply how long it will stay active in your system) is 3-5 hours. If you're at the upper end of that range, then too much bolus insulin in that injection before bed could be the cause of your hypos. If I were in your position, I'd try a little less insulin with whatever you're eating before bed. It's possible that you might have a different I:C ratio in the evening (less insulin for the amount of carbs you're eating) than you do for the rest of the day. i.e. 1:12 or 1:15 instead of 1:10, for example. All trial and error though :) Please do let us know how you get on! [/QUOTE]
