Guide Peri-Op Management of Diabetes Medications
November 2024
You’ll get questions about how to manage diabetes meds around surgery...partly due to rising use of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists.
Help prevent procedure delays and peri-op complications by appropriately timing specific diabetes meds around planned surgeries.
Avoid risks from newer diabetes medications. Hold an SGLT2i (canagliflozin, etc) for at least 3 days before surgery. Fasting with an SGLT2i may cause ketoacidosis despite normal glucoses.
