Hello.My daughter has made debut 1 month ago and we are in full adaptation.Well, we have already made the first mistake, we forget to apply the basal insulin of the night.We did it by realizing 2 hours later ... and after dinner !!!With which I was already in 380 and we had to correct.My question is ... I corrected with a smaller dose calculating that the basal would start working in 2 hours and I have a horror of a hypo during the night.Has it ever happened to them?What do you recommend?

If it gets fast and at two hours of dinner it is at 300 you have fallen short in the dose.
What basal does it use?With Tresiba nothing should happen.

@Paolayalma with the new basal insulins, threeiba, toujeo or even with levemir or lantus, 2 hours up or down at the time of administration do not imply a great mismatch in the glycemia, I believe as @anaisabel says that that 300 is more for the rapidor any other hormonal reason, carbohydrates etc .. that for not having put the basal at your time.-

What basal does it have?If you use Lantus, it can be short when delaying the time.
