However, SGLT2i have been associated with an increased risk of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). This case series describes three cases of patients who developed euglycemic DKA while taking SGLT2i. <b>Key Findings:</b> Each of the three patients with euglycemic DKA were taking SGLT2i for the treatment of diabetes and all had additional risk factors for the development of DKA. These factors included reduced oral intake, major acute illness, chronic pancreatitis, and a history of previous DKA episodes. Unfortunately, the absence of hallmark symptoms like hyperglycemia, polyuria, and polydipsia led to delayed diagnosis of euglycemic DKA in two of the three patients. <b>Conclusion:</b> Early recognition of risk factors and a high level of suspicion are critical in identifying euglycemic DKA in patients taking SGLT2i. Healthcare providers should conduct thorough medication reconciliation upon admission and closely monitor patients for concurrent issues, especially in cases of minimal oral intake, acute illnesses, and chronic pancreatitis.
