If youve identified you are having night time hypos, and you think you have identified the cause, why haven't you done anything to address it? By, you know, taking less bolus with dinner?Lantus can be taken am or pm, or split and taken both. It probably doesn't last 24 hours. If you are currently having night time hypos when taking it in the morning you are probably better off sticking with an am lantus does until you have addressed and resolved the night time hypos because it's highly unlikely a 9am lantus does would be causing night time hypos, but a 9pm lantus dose does carry that risk. If you think it's your basal causing the hypos do some basal testing - <a href="https://mysugr.com/basal-rate-testing/" target="_blank">https://mysugr.com/basal-rate-testing/</a>But it does sound from the timings that your bolus might be the problem. How do yo decide on your bolus dose? Do you carb count? What's your insulin:carb ratio? What are you having for dinner? What kind of level are you going to bed at? What time are the nighttime hypos happening?</blockquote>
