Abstract

This study revealed limited awareness and confidence among FMRs regarding insulin overbasalization. While knowledge alone was not significantly linked to residency level, more training years predicted better practice. A significant correlation between knowledge and practice highlights the need for early, targeted education to enhance insulin management skills in primary care.
