"Hypoglycemia and fear of an episode can be extremely detrimental to patients' quality of life. Hypoglycemia is also linked to higher healthcare utilization, poorer glycemic control, and medication nonadherence. Evidence from landmark clinical trials also shows that episodes of severe hypoglycemia increase the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Severe hypoglycemia is a serious complication and a medical emergency."
