Abstract

To minimize the influence of possible confounding factors, the study was carried out in a cross-over manner. Using flash glucose monitoring, insulin glargine 300 U/mL showed less nocturnal hypoglycemia than insulin degludec 100 U/mL . Examination of insulin degludec 100 U/mL nocturnal hypoglycemia by combined oral medications suggested that metformin combination might be the cause of nocturnal hypoglycemia.
