Insulin Degludec
This ultra-long-acting insulin analogue provides a steady, baseline level of insulin throughout the day with a duration of action exceeding 42 hours, allowing for once-daily dosing. It is used to control fasting blood glucose in adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Its flat action profile is associated with a lower risk of nighttime hypoglycemia compared to some other basal insulins.
