[QUOTE="ElyDave, post: 593449, member: 74042"] It may only be 12 hours in you, but in a lot of people it's longer acting. 12 hours would make it very simply equal doses 12 hours apart, but I don't know many people that do so. I take 5 units in the evening around 9:30pm, and then 3 units in the morning at 6:30am. Taking the evening dose later resulted in hypos early in the day. I definitely have overlap of doses with the evening dose active well into the next day. You also need to think about activity levels as well, with higher activity in the daytime generally affecting both insulin sensitivity and liver glucose release. [/QUOTE]
