A computer-implemented method is presented for recommending insulin dosage adjustments for a patient having diabetes. The method includes: identifying a plurality of bolus events from patient data; grouping bolus events having a recommended bolus dosage substantially equivalent to the amount of administered insulin into a first subset of bolus events; determining a bolus outcome for each of the bolus events in the first subset of bolus events, where the bolus outcome is expressed in relation to a target range of blood glucose values and is selected from a group including above the target range, in the target range and below the target range; determining whether one of the bolus outcomes is predominant amongst the bolus events in the first subset of bolus events; and generating a recommendation pertaining to insulin dosage for the patient in response to a determination that one of the bolus outcomes is predominant.
