@Cristóbal Castro Martínez, the fast dose is calculated according to carbohydrates.
You have foods or food rations, which the diabetes educator or the endocrine gives you.
A fast unit is usually needed for every 15 g of hydrates, but your doctor has to give you the guideline, because it depends on the sensitivity you have to insulin.
