Brief summary

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to compare the within-subject variability of the pharmacokinetic profiles of insulin detemir and insulin glargine in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Interventions

DRUGinsulin detemir

On two dosing visits, 0.4 U/kg insulin detemir will be administered followed by 0.4 U/kg insulin glargine after a 24 hours' interval and repeated in opposite order at next dosing visit. Administrated subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin)

DRUGinsulin glargine

On two dosing visits, 0.4 U/kg insulin glargine will be administered followed by 0.4 U/kg insulin detemir after a 24 hours' interval and repeated in opposite order at next dosing visit. Administrated subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin)
