Conclusions SGLT-2 inhibitors seem to be associated with euglycemic DKA and ketosis, perhaps as a consequence of their noninsulin-dependent glucose clearance, hyperglucagonemia, and volume depletion.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), or gliflozins, are medications used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes ...

This week on the Inside EMS podcast, hosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson tackle a metabolic monster that every EMS ...

When too many ketones are produced too quickly, it can potentially be life-threatening. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention.

Diabetic ketoacidosis, alcoholic ketoacidosis,uremia, lactic acidosis and toxic ingestion were not present. Starvation ketosis caused by vomiting was a possible contributor, however, the degree of ...

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a build-up of substances called ketones in the blood that can happen if a patient's blood glucose levels are too high for too long and is caused by a lack of insulin ...

Created with Sketch. It can be. While nutritional ketosis is generally healthy in the short term, excessively high levels of ketone bodies can lead to ketoacidosis, a life-threatening condition.

These medications are also associated with euglycemic ketoacidosis (eKA), which is characterized by high levels of ketones. In healthy amounts, ketones help the body convert fat cells into energy, but ...
