First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study tests whether fluoxetine (Prozac) and/or DHEA (a natural hormone) can improve the body's ability to defend against low blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes. About 60 adults aged 18-50 will receive either one or both treatments or a placebo. The goal is to see if these substances boost the body's natural counter-regulatory responses during repeated low blood sugar episodes.
