Thanks to DCIN, I was finally able to start my Charlie on Lantus yesterday.
I started at 1U twice daily. He was formerly on Humulin-N, which was doing very little to control his BG level. When I woke up this morning, his BG was 311 instead of the usual 500 or so I typically saw with Humulin, so it's off to a good start!! I'm eager to check it again later today to see how well it's working. I'll be keeping a log of his numbers and will share it with you guys intermittently. I'm going to check out the Lantus board, but do any of you have personal experience switching from Humulin (or another insulin) to Lantus?? How well is/was it working for your kitty?? My vet claimed that it didn't work well for some cats and even advised me against switching, but I've only heard good things about it!
