Background: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2 inhibitors) rarely cause euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA) in diabetic patients. The aim was to identify demographic, clinical, and predisposing factors for euDKA from published case reports. Methods: A systematic review of published case reports of euDKA in patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors and meta-analysis of clinical trials to quantify the risk ratio (RR) of DKA in patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors. PubMed and EMBASE databases were searched for the case reports of and clinical trials from January 2010 to August 2020. Studies published in English language were included and other languages were excluded. Data related to patients' demography, clinical presentation, drug and dose of SGLT2 inhibitors, and concomitant medication were extracted. Incidence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) extracted from clinical trials. Data related to demographic, clinical, and other parameters presented as ratios and proportions and incidence of DKA in RR using Review Manager 5.3. Results: Forty-seven of 160 reports with an aggregate of 77 patients were included in the analysis. The majority of the patients were females (67.53%), with T2DM and with gastrointestinal symptoms (58%). Surgery was the most common precipitating factor (n/N = 15/77). Canagliflozin (n/N = 34/77) was the commonest SGLT2 inhibitor reported along with metformin as the concomitant medication (63.6%). The pooled RR of DKA was 3.70 (95%CI 2.58, 5.29) and I2 = 0%. Conclusion: euDKA is commonly seen in middle-aged female, T2DM patients taking SGLT2 inhibitors along with metformin. The risk of DKA in patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors increases by 3.7 times than the other medication.
