Subsequent Correction Boluses
The difference between your current blood glucose level and your target blood glucose level is called Delta
bG. A correction bolus administered according to the previous conditions covers this difference for a certain
period of time. As the correction bolus starts to take effect, your current blood glucose level should fall and
the covered Delta bG decreases after the Offset Time. At the end of the Acting Time, your blood glucose level
should return to the target limit. You receive a recommendation for another correction bolus only if your
current blood glucose result exceeds the current Delta bG level.

recommended.
