Plain-English summary
A dog with diabetes that wasn't responding well to other insulin treatments might benefit from a different type called insulin detemir. This insulin could help manage blood sugar levels more effectively in dogs that struggle with traditional options. If your dog has diabetes and isn't improving with current medications, discussing insulin detemir with your veterinarian could be a good next step.
