Diabetic not eating normal insulin 16unit 3 daily should i adjust n how much?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Yes, most likely you will need to adjust but this is impossible to determine without blood sugar logs, your history of Insulin dosing, and any other meds (including diabetes meds) that you are taking. You should discuss this with your doctor who knows you and your history well.
