Abstract EN
The use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 diabetes is steadily increasing.
SGLT2 inhibitors are associated with weight loss, lowering of blood pressure, and low hypoglycemia risk along with beneficial cardiovascular and renoprotective effects.
In view of the increasing use of SGLT2i, physicians must be aware of their adverse effects.
Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA) is a well-recognized adverse effect of SGLT2i.
We present here a case of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis secondary to dapagliflozin use in a type 2 diabetic patient with colon cancer.
To the best of our knowledge, this is first report of SGLT2 inhibitor-associated euDKA in a patient with underlying colon cancer.
