    Author: Jendle J, Ridderstråle M, Torfvitt O, Ericsson A, Larsen S.
    Journal: J Med Econ; 2012; 15(2):261-3. PubMed ID: 22142237.
    Abstract:
    Data from a 20-week trial comparing insulin detemir and neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin in insulin-naïve people with type 2 diabetes were analyzed using willingness-to-pay (WTP) data, a proxy for patient preference. The advantages of insulin detemir relative to NPH insulin with respect to a lower hypoglycemia rate and less weight gain were associated with a value of €27.87 per month.
