Prolonged glucosuria and relapse of diabetic ketoacidosis related to SGLT2‐inhibitor therapy

Abstract SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are glucose‐lowering medications which increase the renal threshold for glucose reabsorption and promote glucosuria. Treatment with these agents raises serum ketone levels, and cases of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) during therapy have been reported. The duration of...
