[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 561234, member: 102150"] I don't agree with this. For many people, once daily Lantus is not effective and twice daily is superior. Switching from twice to once daily is a particularly bad idea if you are suffering hypos from Lantus (because the peak concentration of Lantus will be roughly double). This is very alarmist. Killing someone with insulin is extremely hard even if attempted deliberately, let alone accidentally, let alone with Lantus. I don't think anyone says Lantus does not cause hypos and hypoglycemia is listed as the first side effect warning on the patient information leaflet. This is very bad advice and incorrect in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
