I'm not a Doctor and if you wish to consider this, then please seek your Doctor's approval.

I have also heard of people having better success with morning numbers by using Metformin ER (extended release).
That helped me alot also .. both taking my last dose AT bedtime and switching to ER, a snack helps also but thats dependent on my bedtime BGL (feeding the meter)
