Abstrakt: | Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a relatively newer class of medications, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2013 to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. Over the past few years, the indications for SGLT2i have been expanded to decrease the risk of kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. SGLT2i are associated with an increased risk of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis, urinary tract infections, and genital mycotic infections. There are a few case reports of severe invasive fungal infections due to Candida in patients using SGLT2i. We present the case of Candida tropicalis fungemia and renal abscess in a patient on an SGLT2i. (© The Author(s) 2024. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Endocrine Society.) |
