  1. BG, blood glucose; SMGB, self-monitored blood glucose
  2. Glycemic targets for titration: Prebreakfast and predinner PG: 5.0 to 7.0 mmol/L. Prebreakfast dose of biphasic insulin aspart 30 is titrated based on the three mean predinner PG values for the 3 days prior to the visit. Predinner dose of biphasic insulin aspart 30 is titrated based on the three mean fasting PG values for the 3 days prior to the visit. The predinner biphasic insulin aspart 30 titration is not increased if the preceding day’s bedtime SMGB value is 5.6 mmol/L
