going off pump; how much Lantus do I take?
 
> So I'm going off the pump because I can't afford it anymore. Planning to switch over to Lantus for my basal. Basically my question is how much Lantus do I take?
My current basal for my pump is
12am .375
7am .600
12 pm .350
2pm .325
4pm .375
9pm .350
11pm .425
For a total of 9.97u of novolog a day

This is a question that I feel your Endo should answer. However, there is a sticky thread in the Type 1 section that may be of some help.

this was posted a while ago but if anyone is still wondering, i switch from the pump to lantus in the summer for more freedom at the beach and such. so my endo always tells me to go into the pump settings and add all of my basals together, which you did, and then add 2 units for the first day of lantus and adjust it from there. hope this helps!
