Take NPH at bedtime (10:00 PM) instead of at mealtime (8:00 PM) so that it will ""kick in"" later in the evening and preventing the Dawn Effect

Dawn Effect:
No food from 8:00 PM to 7:30 AM should put the pt in a ""fasting state"" & glucagon takes over --> releases GH, IGF --> stimulates lipolysis, glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis --> resulting in a morning hyperglycemia
