Patterns and trends in insulin initiation and intensification among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Western Pacific region.

CONCLUSION: As high HbA1C levels indicate a delayed start of insulin therapy, timely initiation and early intensification of insulin therapy is necessary in the region to achieve adequate glycemic control in time and prevent diabetes complications. Data from PROs suggest that the insulin treatment improves QoL in most patients. PMID: 29863422 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
