Ate a very late dinner, 7:45. Took bolus hemolog. How late should I take my lantus?
 
Hi,

Lantus? Around your "usual time." As directed by your doc or DN.
Your previous evening/nights Lantus dose would be tailing off anyway..

If you have had your meal out of your usual routine? Then keep an eye on your blood sugars a little more closely..
But the idea of basal/bolus (MDI) treatment on the whole, was originally designed with mealtime patient "lifestyle" flexibility in mind...
