The wire

  1. 01A Cureus review covers evidence and a proposed clinical framework for deintensifying insulin in people with type 2 diabetes after starting GLP-1-based therapy.
  2. 02Clinicians managing patients on both insulin and incretin drugs face hypoglycemia risk and unclear tapering guidance; a structured framework addresses a common prescribing question.
  3. 03This is a narrative review rather than new trial data, and only the title and abstract heading are available; readers should check the full text for the strength of the underlying evidence.
