Abstract
Patients 80 years or older with HbA1c <7.0% (53 mmol/mol) treated with multiple daily insulin injections had low rates of rapid-acting insulin deprescription and initiation of diabetes medications with lower risk of hypoglycemia. Further investigation is needed to elucidate factors contributing to potentially inappropriately aggressive treatment of these patients.
