What should I do if I take the wrong dose of insulin?

​​Don’t panic.

Check your blood glucose. 

If you did not take enough insulin, your glucose levels may be high. You may need to talk to your doctor about taking more insulin. 

If you took too much insulin, you may need to eat more and check your blood glucose more often. 

See the image below for what to do if your blood glucose is below 70 or above 180 mg/dL.

Call 911 right away if you think you are having a medical emergency.
