Dose of levemir (insulin detemir): You obviously should discuss the dosing of Levemir (insulin detemir) (l) with they physician (p) who prescribed it. You may be ingesting too many carbohydrates. Your current dose of l appears to be inadequate. Call your p to discuss the dose of l you should be on.
