Abstract

Adult Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 Drug Administration Schedule Female Hemoglobin A Glycosylated Humans Hypoglycemic Agents Insulin Aspart Insulin Long-Acting Male
Intensive basal-bolus insulin therapy has been shown to improve glycaemic control and reduce the risk of long-term complications that are associated with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Insulin degludec is a new, ultra-longacting basal insulin. We therefore compared the efficacy and safety of insulin degludec and insulin glargine, both administered once daily with mealtime insulin aspart, in basal-bolus therapy for type 1 diabetes.
