[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1537533, member: 17713"] Insulatard is an extra basal injection. I take it at 4am as its gently starting to work for my DP and stops it rising too much. Then at 8am when I have my morning correction bolus it helps as its kicking in at full strength between 4-8hrs after taking it the Insulatard at 4am. So. Again it helps the ruses from 8-midday for me. I still have to bolus though at 8am as the Insulatard in larger doses will affect me with liws for the rest of the day uf I take too much of it. Its been a fine balancing act for me as my hospital wanted low doses of tresiba and high doses of insulatard. They were under tge imoression insulatard out of ourr bodies at 16 hours. It isnt with me. Now I am much better doing 12 units of tresiba and 1 -2 unit of insulatard. Its given me a headache along the way with hospital telling me to do things I know have been wrong for me. Having a cgm funded means I need to be compliant to their advice..... Insulatard for me, just a little shot at 4am really calms my mornings down a lot. Not perfect but cping is easier than having a bolus at 4am that acted too quickly and too strong. [/QUOTE]
