COPENHAGEN (AFX) - Novo Nordisk AS said the European Commission has approved its insulin analogue Levemir for once-daily use in combination with oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs).

'The new approval of Levemir... provides a new treatment option for people with type 2 diabetes who have difficulties in maintaining acceptable blood glucose levels when treated with OADs alone,' Novo Nordisk said.
