Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis associated with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction following SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are the latest approved class of oral antidiabetic agents that inhibit renal SGLT-2 receptors and increase urinary glucose excretion in the luminal membrane of the proximal tubule. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a triad of hyperglycemia, ketosis, and a high anion gap with metabolic acidosis. We present the case of 61 years-old men with severe euglycemic DKA (EDKA) complicated ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction following SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Atypical presentation of ketoacidosis without hyperglycemia can delay diagnosis and may result in catastrophic complications. Quick diagnosis, appropriate clinical and biochemical assessment, and effective treatment protocols ensure successful resolution of EDKA.
