Intensive control of Type 1 Diabetes is critical in prevention of long term complications. Unfortunately, there is a three-fold increase in hypoglycemia with intensive control. Hypoglycemia is often the major limiting factor in achieving good control. Insulin treatment of diabetes is composed of some form of short acting insulin regimen in order to provide control of blood glucose excursions that are the result of glucose intake as well as a basal insulin regimen either in a continuous administration (as in continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion-"pump therapy"), once a day injection (insulin Glargine), twice a day (ultralente or NPH or lente insulin) or a premixed version that is combined with the short acting insulin (70/30 or 75/25). Often low blood sugars are the result of less physiologically absorbed insulins whose peak of action is earlier or later than the peak absorption of glucose from a meal.
