We have assessed the utility of the flash glucose monitoring system after adjusting the dose of insulin and sulphonylureas to mitigate the risk of hypoglycemia in patients with T2DM who fast during Ramadan. Patients with T2DM on either basal insulin or a sulphonylurea and at least 2 other glucose-lowering agents received structured education and adjustment of insulin or sulphonylurea dose according to the PROFAST Ramadan protocol. Glucose variability and episodes of hypoglycemia were assessed using the flash glucose monitoring system (Free Style Libre) before and during Ramadan. A total of 33 patients with T2DM (on sulphonylurea (SU+) (n=21), on basal insulin (BI+) (n=12) aged 50.8±1.6years with a diabetes duration of 13.1±6.5years were studied. The average sensor glucose was 154±34mg/dl (8.5±1.88mmol/l) with 65.2% in the target range before Ramadan and the average sensor glucose was 156±36mg/dl (8.6±2.0mmol/l) with 67.1% in the target range during Ramadan. The incidence of hypoglycemia in the whole group (2.9 v 2.9) and in the SU+ (3.7 vs 3.0) and BI+ (1.7 vs 2.9) groups and eHbA1c (P=0.56, P=0.93), average glucose (P=0.56, P=0.92) and time within range (P=0.63, P=0.73) did not change in the SU+ and BI+ groups, respectively, before and during Ramadan. Structured education with adjustment of the dose of glucose lowering medication alongside use of the FGMS can effectively mitigate the increased risk of hypoglycemia in patients with T2DM on multiple glucose-lowering therapies who fast during Ramadan.
