Canagliflozin-associated Diabetic Ketoacidosis with Lower-than-anticipated Glucose Levels.
Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2017 November
The Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors for use in Type II diabetics. These are a relatively new addition to the armamentaria of diabetes management. Postmarketing surveillance is a witness to several side effects, a morbid one being ketoacidosis. Herein is discussed a scenario of a Type II diabetic who presented with substantial ketoacidosis without significant hyperglycemia. The absence of the customary precipitating factors and the presence of a recent introduction of canagliflozin, a SGLT-2 inhibitor to the diabetes prescription, hinted at the causal relationship. Of note, she had never experienced diabetic ketoacidosis in the past prior to commencement of SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy. As clinicians, we need to be aware of the treatment-emergent adverse effect of this relatively new class of diabetic treatment.
