Although it usually resolves promptly after discontinuation of insulin, severe cases can lead to pulmonary edema, congestive heart failure, and acute renal failure. Insulin icodec is a recently marketed once-weekly, long-acting basal insulin, and its clinical use is increasing in Japan because it offers the convenience of once-weekly administration with an acceptable safety profile. In this report, we describe what is, to our knowledge, the first case of edema associated with insulin icodec. An 82-year-old man with glucocorticoid-induced diabetes mellitus in the setting of pre-existing impaired glucose metabolism was started on insulin icodec because of worsening glycemic control and developed bilateral leg edema a few days after the first injection. As he had no signs of heart failure, liver disease, or renal impairment, insulin icodec-induced edema was suspected, and insulin icodec was discontinued. Notably, it took more than one month after discontinuation of insulin icodec for the edema to improve. This case suggests that, compared with edema caused by conventional insulin preparations, insulin icodec-associated edema may show a delayed course of resolution. A closer and longer observation should be considered when initiating insulin icodec, particularly in insulin-naive people or in those with suboptimal glycemic management.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Learning points<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1530\/edm-26-0007","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,21]],"date-time":"2026-09-21T15:05:53Z","timestamp":1790003153000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1530\/crossmarkpolicy-2","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A case report of insulin edema associated with insulin icodec"],"prefix":"10.1530","volume":"2026","author":[{"given":"Akihiro","family":"Narita","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-9371-7154","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Takaaki","family":"Murakami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yohei","family":"Ueda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daisuke","family":"Yabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"416","reference":[{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"519","DOI":"10.1016\/0035-9203(66)90277-X","article-title":"The insulin-oedema syndrome in African diabetic subjects","volume":"60","author":"Shaper","year":"1966","journal-title":"Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"575","DOI":"10.1016\/S0272-6386(04)00960-6","article-title":"The edematogenic properties of insulin","volume":"44","author":"Kalambokis","year":"2004","journal-title":"Am J Kidney Dis"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"104","DOI":"10.1177\/108155890405200218","article-title":"Insulin edema in the twenty-first century: review of the existing literature","volume":"52","author":"Chelliah","year":"2004","journal-title":"J Invest Med"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib4","article-title":"Insulin edema associated with glargine","volume":"2","author":"Wood","year":"2023","journal-title":"JCEM Case Rep"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"147","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9343(85)90562-5","article-title":"Insulin-induced cardiac failure","volume":"79","author":"Sheehan","year":"1985","journal-title":"Am J Med"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjdrc-2021-002301","article-title":"Molecular and pharmacological characterization of insulin icodec: a new basal insulin analog designed for once-weekly dosing","volume":"9","author":"Nishimura","year":"2021","journal-title":"BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"297","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa2303208","article-title":"Weekly insulin icodec versus daily glargine U100 in type 2 diabetes without previous insulin","volume":"389","author":"Rosenstock","year":"2023","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib8","article-title":"A case of insulin edema syndrome improved by weekly insulin icodec","volume":"3","author":"Desgagn\u00e9s","year":"2025","journal-title":"JCEM Case Rep"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"13","DOI":"10.1007\/s13340-025-00864-4","article-title":"Insulin edema in slowly progressive type 1 diabetes: improvement following adjustment of insulin therapy","volume":"17","author":"Okamura","year":"2025","journal-title":"Diabetol Int"},{"key":"2026092111054796400_bib10","volume-title":"Reflection Paper on Investigations of Pharmacokinetics in The Obese Population","author":"European Medicines Agency","year":"2024"}],"container-title":["Endocrinology, Diabetes &amp;
