Persistence with rapid-acting insulin and its association with A1C level and severe hypoglycemia among elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.

CONCLUSION: Among elderly T2D patients, persistence with RAI added to basal insulin was associated with improved glycemic control, with lower risk of severe hypoglycemia. Despite treatment effectiveness, RAI persistence was poor and might be improved by reducing RAI out-of-pocket costs. PMID: 28393573 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
