Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Sodium glucose transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are a relatively new group of antidiabetic drugs. The renal glucose reabsorption is blocked resulting in higher glucose levels in the urine (glucosuria). Recently studies are being conducted into the medications nephrological and cardiovascular potential. As a result, we may expect that SGLT-2 inhibitors will be more and more frequently prescribed. Thus, physicians of any specialty may come into contact with patients that are using this drug.
CASE DESCRIPTION: We describe a case of a male patient who developed a urinary tract infection with Candida glabrata while using a SGLT-2 inhibitor. After discontinuing the SGLT-2 inhibitor, the infection subsided.
CONCLUSION: Urinary tract infections from Candida are rarely seen in healthy individuals. Glucosuria is a known risk factor for fungal genital infections. More research is needed to determine whether SGLT-2 inhibitors increase the risk of fungal urinary tract infections.
