Unless, of course, you feel like dying.

Well, you won't necessarily die, but trust me ... you don't want to be waking up while you are going hypo.

Your body will wake you up. I always take mine post workout followed by a good meal with ample carbs. If they were not enough, my body wakes me up in a very mild hypo so I walk to the frig and down a few cups of juice and back to peaceful sleep.
BTW, I will only use HumalinR. Same gains less risk.

I agree,never fall asleep after a slin shot,but it is very tempting sometimes cause I get tired as hell after a slin shot.

Marky: I have read that it is better to take log in the evening. Some guys on the Board have said they have gone hypo lik 4-5 hrs after taking humilin.

I specifically ordered humalog because it is active for a shorter time. I think The Bouncer posted a chart that showed hum. R was active for like 8 hours !!! Log is more like 3-4 hours, thus better suited for PM usage!!

If I remember correct hum. R is slightly more anabolic, but not worth a bedtime hypo risk.

HumilinR peaks at 4-4.5 hours. Long enough before I crash. Took my shot at 6pm and will crash at 930pm-10pm. Been doing this for a long time. I am comfortable and familiar with R and have encounter no hypo episodes. I do 12-15 iu once a day post wkout. Log peaks in less than an hour. Not for me.

I shoot humalog at 9pm and Im in bed at 11pm. No problems. I just down carbs/protein/creatine after inject and then more carbs and protein 30min later. And right before bed I consume carbs so there wont be any problems. Insulin isnt that dangerous if you get in the carbs. I probably take to many in, but its offseason....galaxy
