It depends on each person.If you have to have hypoglycemia at night, it is better to put it in the morning.

Hi Melchor, then look, the lantus has its greatest effect the 6 hours to administer it, so in the function of when you have seen that you are worse of medium sugar levels during the days, then administrate it so that those moments of peak agree youwithin those following 6 hours to the administration.Another little thing, the Lantus does not last 24 hours, I would say that in my case to those of the 20-22 hours I begin to notice the lack of insulin.I hope it helps!
