In-hospital linagliptin for management simplification and hypoglycemia reduction in very old patients with type 2 diabetes
The linagliptin regimen simplified in-hospital antihyperglycemic management and reduced hypoglycemia events compared to basal-bolus insulin regimen in patients with type 2 diabetes aged≥80 years. Basal-bolus insulin use and clinical factors were associated with hypoglycemia. The linagliptin regimen could be considered as standard of care for older adult type 2 diabetes patients in the hospital setting.
