Ive not long ate my tea and took my novorapid insulin, i take my lantus insulin before i go to bed. Do i have to wait a period of time after my novorapid to take my lantus?
I'm a newbie to Lantus and Novorapid. Have I got this right? Novorapid takes care of the spike after a meal and Lantus keeps the background bg level under control. If the two are injected close together, doesn't this cause an insulin overload?
Sorry if this seems a daft question, but I'm still learning.
@June_C, we are told to rotate our injection sites to avoid lipo problems, but I was told when starting on MDI not to inject both basal and bolus doses into the same area and keep well apart, not sure of the reason why but I'd expect one or the other insulin may effect the efficency/absorbtion in some way and this is why its not advisable, as said not sure of the answer but a Google search may provide the answer.
