Novolin (insulin) R & N differ: Hi, give Nov R 20 minutes before main meals only, same dose as Humalog, not more than 4 hourly. Give Nov N before breakfast in 1/2 the dose you use of Lantus (insulin glargine). Give Nov N in 1/4 the dose you use of Lantus (insulin glargine), before bed (you will wake with high BSL but should avoid any hypo in night). Check BSL every 2 hours by day, every 4 hours by night. Get your usual insulin as soon as possible, see yr MD soon.
