About this trial

The aim of INS.CORT trial is, by studying glycemic variability in a well-defined patient group with both insulin \& hydrocortisone (patients with concomitant insulin-treated diabetes \& Addison's disease) and collecting information about the administration -time point and doses- of insulin, hydrocortisone and food intake with the help of new technology to improve the treatment in all patients treated with both insulin \& glucocorticoids.
