Treatment Decision Considerations

Glucose in
Target Range
If you are about to eat,
take insulin to cover
your meal. Consider
taking a little more since
glucose is rising quickly.
If you have taken insulin
recently, do nothing and
scan again later.
Avoid "insulin stacking".
High Glucose
(> 240 mg/dL)
If you are about to eat,
take insulin to cover
your meal. Consider
taking a little more since
glucose is high and
rising quickly.
If this is between
meals, consider taking
an insulin correction
dose, unless you have
taken insulin recently. If
you have taken insulin
recently, do nothing and
scan again later.
Avoid "insulin stacking".
