[QUOTE="novorapidboi26, post: 1903147, member: 90156"] Levemir is a long acting background insulin like Tresiba, last about 12-18 hours, obviously everyone is different and larger dose will last longer.... So you can split it evenly over a 24 hour period, but it can be split unevenly too, so a dose before bed, so 8 or 9 hours, then a dose at breakfast to last till the before bed dose again.... the split allows you to adjust each dose independently, so ideal if you are a lot more active in the day.... its all about experimenting and adjusting to get it right for your own body..... as mentioned, dawn phenomenon could be at work, so the liver spitting out glucose in the hours before waking...unfortunately you really need to break your fast to stop that process... food for thought....
