Diabetes, Type 2
"I have been a diabetic for 20 years now. I am on metformin 1000mg two times a day. I have also been on Lantus for the same time. A Doctor can tell you what to take but it may not be right. I was told to take 65 units at bedtime, but if I was sick or did not eat much that day I could bottom out in the AM. What I&#039;m trying to say is you will have to find the right dose for you by checking your blood sugar on a regular basis.If your blood sugar was 350 at bedtime my lantus dose would  be 82.  I seldom take the same dose every night and I am staying in the good A1C range 22 for a 435 range will not work for me either. It&#039;s tough but you must keep a log to see what dose you gave yourself the last time and adjust it from there. Love you guy&#039;s."
