A Study of Nasal Glucagon (LY900018) in Pediatric Participants With Type 1 Diabetes (RescuiNGkids)

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a study drug called nasal glucagon (Baqsimi) in pediatric participants with type 1 diabetes (T1D) aged 1 to less than 4 years. Blood tests will be performed to check how much nasal glucagon gets into the bloodstream. Blood sugar will also be measured to understand the effect of the drug on blood sugar levels. The study consists of a screening period up to 35 days before dosing, 1 day when a dose of nasal glucagon will be given and then 2 telephone follow up calls; first follow-up call on the day after the nasal glucagon was given and second call about one week after nasal glucagon was given.
