Re: What should type 2readings be at night
Hi. There is no single answer to this. Gliclazide works for around 10 hours max after taking it so when you last took the tablets is one variable. If it's been several hours since the last meal and tablets I might check bloods and if at least 6mmol I wouldn't have any worries; this is merely an opinion as an amateur. Anything lower and I might have something to eat just in case to minimise hypo risk during the night?
