Type 1 diabetes

A novel glucose beta‐hydroxybutyrate combination improves hypoglycaemia recovery and patient‐reported outcomes in type 1 diabetes

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Randomised crossover trials

Authors' conclusion

FLO23011 provides superior hypoglycaemia management through improved glycaemic stability, reduced recurrence, and enhanced patient experience compared to current glucose-only treatments.
