Evaluate Quality of Life in Type 2 Diabetes, Before and After Change to Insuline Glargine
Evaluate Quality of Life in Type 2 Diabetes, Before and After Change to Insuline Glargine
Primary objective:

 To assess quality of Life (QoL) changes and treatment satisfaction in a real life situation
 in patients with Type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on a combination of oral
 antidiabetic drugs (OAD) plus Neutral Protamine Hagedrone (NHP) insulin treatment that are
 switched to insulin glargine.

 Secondary objective:

 To determine:

 change in HbA1c, comparision of the incidence of symptomatic hypoglycemia and severe
 hypoglycemia before and after introduction of insulin glargine, change in weight, change in
 insulin dose.
