Anyone using Victoza? Low Glucose at bedtime.

I started on 0.6mg Victoza injections in December ’13 and am on 1.2mg per day for the past 3 weeks. I was on 120mg of Diamicron (gliclazide) per day and it has been reduced now to 30mg because my glucose levels have dropped so much with Victoza. My levels were commonly between 9 and 18 (162 and 324) even though I exercised regularly and watched what I ate. I am on steroids for RA which doesn’t help. I am weaning off them atm and am down to a very low dose of 4mg per day now.

I was on the maximum dose for Diamicron (gliclazide) and Glucophage (metformin) before starting Victoza. Now my levels are between 5 and 6 (90 and 108) which is wonderful but unfortunately my level when I go to bed is generally too low, 3.8 to 4.2. (68 to 76). It makes me quite anxious at bedtime. I have started having a snack halfway between my evening meal and bedtime to try to combat this but it doesn’t seem to work as expected. If anything it seems to activate the Victoza again and the level is low again by bedtime.

Has anyone had a similar experience? Did the levels at bedtime settle down and become more predictable? Thanks for any advice. Neenaa.
