[QUOTE="Ryankay94, post: 2506359, member: 554667"] Hello! I was recently put onto Empagliflozin in February this year, the weight started to drop quickly, yet i thought nothing of this. I was urinating every hour, and constantly intaking fluids due to this. I was also prescribed Ozempic at the same time; this could make me feel like i did not want to eat. Start of April, i was constantly vomitting, therefore went to the GP, who checked my urine and rushed me straight to hospital. There, they told me my ketone levels were 5.6, yet a normal range was 0.3; i was diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis. I was in hospital for 2 full days, and on 3 constant drips which were fluids, insulin and glucose. Upon speaking to the doctors and diabetic nurses it was found that the cause was the empagliflozin and ozempic, which have now been discontinued and i now continue with my 1g of metformin twice a day, and 16 units of insulin in a morning.
