With TR, because Mimi has had FD for under a year, you reduce the dose when the BG drops
under 50.
If you look at the SS you will see that each time she has dropped
under 50, she has had her dose reduced by 0.25 units....with the exception of the cycles on 9/30 when she had a preshot of 48 and you skipped and a couple of days later she was hospitalized with DKA....I don't think you were a member then. And again on the 11/10 when she was 1 day out of hospital following DKA and she dropped to 39 at +6 and the reduction wasn't taken. You had joined the day before and I don't know if you had begun posting then or were being helped then or not. I cant find any posts relating to it.
Increasing the dose:
- Hold the dose for 3 - 5 days (6 - 10 consecutive cycles) if nadirs are less than 200 before increasing the dose by 0.25 unit.
- if your cat is new to numbers under 200, it is recommended to hold the dose for at least 8-10 cycles before increasing.
- when your cat starts to see nadirs under 100, hold the dose for at least 10 cycles before increasing.
- Increase by 0.25 unit after 3 days (6 consecutive cycles) if nadirs are greater than 200, but less than 300.
- Increase by 0.5 unit after 3 days (6 consecutive cycles) if nadirs are greater than 300.
