Type 2
Hello everyone ! Can anyone help me with this question ?

I am a type 2 diabetic with my recent Hba1c of 6.8 ( 51mm ). I am on insulin
i.e ;
1 x lantus + 3 x humalog. As my Hb has reached the desired target my
consultant has introduced me to metformin 500mg only to compliment the
insulin in order to reduce weight. The humalog dose has a 4 hour cycle &
lantus has a 24 hour slow acting cycle. What is the cycle for 500 mg of
metformin . I need to know this in order to adjust my insulin dosages
accordingly.
