Severe hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis with SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with urinary diversion by Carolina Gomes, João Barbosa Barroso, Ana Isabel Oliveira, Sofia Guerreiro Cruz, Liliana Cunha, Ana Azevedo

“…Urinary diversion after cystectomy using autologous intestinal segments has been the gold standard treatment in several urinary tract diseases. The most frequent metabolic consequence is hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, due to ammonium hydrogen and chloride ions absorption in exchange for the excretion of bicarbonate and sodium ions in the bowel conduit.Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of antihyperglycemic agents that block the reabsorption of filtered glucose in the renal proximal convoluted tubules, promoting greater urinary glucose and sodium excretion.The authors describe two cases of patients with bowel conduit and mild/severe hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, after starting SGLT2 inhibitors. …”
