I am diabetic from last twenty years and switched over to insulin. Taking insulin as 12 units before breakfast, 6 units before lunch, 6 units before dinner and 12 units after dinner at bed time, still my blood sugar is not under control and remains between 200-240. Suggest the remedy.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Since you are already on Insulin (3 doses a day), what is needed is looking at your dietary intake and also physical activity being done during the day. If required you may have to increase the dosage of Insulin by about 2 units depending upon the blood glucose level. You can discuss the matter with your consulting doctor and do the necessary adjustments. Thanks.
