Hi Batty: Originally, Lantus was supposed to be used once a day
but as different as people are this treatment became variable to suit the person. Some people have to take half of their initial dose in the morning
and the other half in the evening. The units of their new treatment with Lantus may change also to suit the person.
Being that you are a Type 1, as far as I know, you would also have to use
a fast-acting Insulin, just before meals. You definitely have to get more info
on this from someone here and discuss it with your Endo.
You also still have to stay around the guidelines of eating as a Diabetic or
your BS's will go outta control.
I am not on Lantus so someone else please comment.

p.s. I'm listening to CNN right now and wolf Blitzer(I think) is going to talk about Diabetes as being an epidemic as it is. Just like that article I think Cinnabon posted.
