Type 1 diabetes mellitus-common cases

Abstract

Tight glycemic control in type 1 diabetes mellitus patients is associated with the risk of hypoglycemia. Diabetic patients are forced to change their lifestyle to adjust to the disease condition and survive it. The best way to manage diabetes would be to develop a therapy, which could adjust to the patient′s conditions. Here, I present few cases wherein switching to a long-acting basal insulin analog helped combat recurrent hypoglycemic episodes experienced by the patients.
