Forced weekly insulin titration schedule for basal and prandial insulin

Mean of self-monitored FPG values from preceding 3 days	Adjust of nocturnal basal insulin dosage (IU/day)
<90 mg/dL (5.0 mmol/L)	−1
90-130 mg/dL (5.0-7.2 mmol/L)	No adjustment
>130 mg/dL (7.2 mmol/L)	+2
Mean of self-monitored pre-dinner values from preceding 3 days	Adjust of diurnal basal insulin dosage (IU/day)
<90 mg/dL (5.0 mmol/L)	−2
90-130 mg/dL (5.0-7.2 mmol/L)	No adjustment
>130 mg/dL (7.2 mmol/L)	+2
Mean of self-monitored postprandial values from preceding 3 days	Adjust of prandial insulin dosage (IU/day)
<90 mg/dL (5.0 mmol/L)	−1
90-180 mg/dL (5.0-10.0 mmol/L)	No adjustment
>180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L)	+1
