A Case of SGLT2 Inhibitor-Induced Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis

While rare, serious adverse effects including euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (EDKA) have been associated with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) use. We present an interesting case of SGLT2i-induced EDKA occurring two years after initiation of therapy. Most patients with EDKA recove...

Sumario:While rare, serious adverse effects including euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (EDKA) have been associated with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) use. We present an interesting case of SGLT2i-induced EDKA occurring two years after initiation of therapy. Most patients with EDKA recover with prompt recognition and treatment. Patient education about identifying early signs remains a cornerstone of early identification and response to SGLT2i-induced EDKA.
