NCT ID NCT03228732
First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study looks at whether fluoxetine (Prozac) and/or DHEA (a natural hormone) can help people with type 1 diabetes better defend against low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). About 60 adults with type 1 diabetes will receive either one or both of these substances or a placebo, and their body's responses will be measured. The goal is to find new ways to manage blood sugar drops, not to cure diabetes.
