[QUOTE="SophiaW, post: 188311, member: 13451"] As you say everyone is different but as a rough guide we've always been told approx. 0.5 - 1 unit of insulin per day per kg of body weight. About 30-50% of your total daily dose will be your basal insulin. But everyone is different, if your HbA1c is good then don't worry about it. If you feel you're taking too much insulin then lowering carbs and increasing exercise may help to use less insulin. [/QUOTE]
