I’d recommend something with carbs that releases its energy slowly something wholemeal: oatcakes is what I prefer, but you could try Belvita breakfast biscuits or similar, but watch out for high sugar content in certain flavours. Adding fat (e.g. cheese or butter) will slow down the release of carbs.  Edit: (posted too quickly). This is probably a temporary situation whilst your doctor/Diabetes specialist adjusts the dose, including splitting the dose. Soon, you won’t have to eat snacks every night or worry about night time hypos.</blockquote>
