I am doing 1u now. Just to clarify, should I plan to hold this dose for 7 days? Or 3 days? When should I plan to do a curve?

Thank you for your help!

With SLGS it’s 7 days unless he has a bg under 90. Here’s the sticky on dosing methods.

Thank you. I actually read that and I saw that for tight regulation it's 7 days for the initial dose then 3 days after that. I wasn't sure if the slgs was also just the 7 days for the initial dose or if it was for all doses so thank you for clarifying.

Very lethargic today. Normal with a dose increase?

I think it’s because the increase has not had enough time. It’s only been a week. I don’t think cats get lethargic from increasing the dose. How did Vinnie react when in the 300’s?

He's normally fairly active and cuddly even when in the 300s. He usually naps in the afternoons but in the mornings he's usually tearing around the house. I'm not super concerned just curious if it was dose related.
