Livstruende ketoacidose hos en 25-årig kvinde med SGLT2-haemmerbehandlet diabetes
Sammanfattning
We report a case of atypical ketoacidosis in a patient treated with a sodium-glucose cotransporter-(SGLT)2 inhibitor. The 25-year-old woman, who one year earlier had been prescribed dapagliflozin for presumed Type 2 diabetes, came to the emergency department in a state of severe ketoacidosis, pH 6.85, and a plasma glucose level of 14.3 mmol/l. She received standard treatment and recovered. We discuss the increasing evidence for atypical ketoacidosis being a serious side effect of the SGLT2 inhibitors.
