Table 2. Titration algorithm for IDegAsp or IGlar.

Pre-breakfast plasma glucose* Adjustment
mmol/L mg/dL U
< 3.1 < 56 –4 (If dose > 45 U, reduce by 10%)
3.1–3.8 56–69 –2 (If dose > 45 U, reduce by 5%)
3.9–4.9 70–89 0
5.0–6.9 90–125 +2
7.0–7.9 126–143 +4
8.0–8.9 144–161 +6
≥ 9.0 ≥ 162 +8

*Mean of three consecutive days’ measurements for dose increases; lowest value for dose decreases.

Unless there is an obvious explanation for the low value, such as a missed meal.

IDegIAsp, insulin degludec/insulin aspart; IGlar, insulin glargine (U100).
