Duration of type 2 diabetes does not appear to moderate hypoglycaemia rate with insulin degludec versus insulin glargine U100

In the DEVOTE and SWITCH 2 trials, insulin degludec 100 units/mL (degludec) was superior to insulin glargine 100 units/mL (glargine U100) with respect to the rates of severe (DEVOTE; across trial) and overall symptomatic (SWITCH 2; during the maintenance period of the trial) hypoglycaemia in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
