Effectiveness of ertugliflozin during Ramadan fasting in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a real-world study (ErtuRamadan study).

Background: Management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) during Ramadan fasting presents unique challenges due to prolonged fasting periods, irregular meal schedules, and altered medication timing, potentially impacting glycemic control. Ertugliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, has been shown to improve glycemic control in T2DM effectively. However, the effectiveness of ertugliflozin during Ramadan fasting, a period with unique glycemic challenges, has not been studied extensively.
