RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) carry higher risk of glycaemic variability during Ramadan. Glucose-lowering medications such as SGLT2 inhibitors are also associated with genitourinary infection, acute kidney injury, and euglycaemic diabetic ketoacidosis. Limited data is available on the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on T2D patients during Ramadan. We investigated effects of empagliflozin use in fasting T2D patients. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study in a single diabetes centre in Malaysia. Empagliflozin group were on study drug for at least three months. For control group, subjects not receiving SGLT2 inhibitors were recruited. Follow-up were performed before and during Ramadan fasting. Anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, renal profile, and blood ketone were recorded during visits. Hypoglycaemia symptoms were assessed via hypoglycaemia symptom rating questionnaire (HypoSRQ). RESULTS: We recruited a total of 98 subjects. Baseline anthropometry, blood pressure, and renal parameters were similar in two groups. No significant changes in blood pressure, weight, urea, creatinine, eGFR, or haemoglobin levels during Ramadan was found in either group. Likewise, no difference was detected in blood ketone levels (empagliflozin vs control, 0.17 ± 0.247 mmol/L vs 0.13 ± 0.082 mmol/L, p = 0.304) or hypoglycaemia indices (empagliflozin vs control, 19.1% vs 16%, p = 0.684). CONCLUSIONS: Ramadan fasting resulted in weight loss and reduction in eGFR levels in patients with T2D. Empagliflozin use during Ramadan is safe and not associated with increased risk of dehydration, ketosis, or hypoglycaemia. Therefore, empagliflozin is a viable glucose-lowering drug for patients with T2D planning for Ramadan fasting.
