ABCD announcement regarding SGLT-2 inhibitors in people with type I and type 2 diabetes

People with type 1 diabetes who are taking SGLT-2 inhibitors (Dapagliflozin, Empagliflozin, Canagliflozin and Ertugliflozin) are at risk of developing diabetic ketoacidosis during any illness. During the Coronavirus epidemic there are some additional safety considerations in treating DKA in patients with COVID-19. In the absence of high quality evidence to guide us, ABCD believes that clinicians may wish to discuss these medications with their patients and possibly mutually agree to stop SGLT-2 inhibitors and control blood glucose by adjusting insulin doses.
