Recommendations for Management
of Diabetes During Ramadan
Diabetes Care
Volume 33, Number 8, August 2010
Major risk associated with
fasting in patients with diabetes
1. Hypoglycemia
2. Hyperglycemia
3. Diabetic ketoacidosis
4. Dehydration and thrombosis
Recommendations for Diabetic Individuals during Ramadan, Diabetes Care , vol 33, num. 8, August2010
Hypoglycaemia
• 2 – 4% of mortality in patients with
type 1 diabetes.
• Rates of hypoglycaemia are some
several-fold lower in patients with
type 2 compared with type 1 diabetes
• Rates being lower in patients with type
2 diabetes treated with oral agents.
Recommendations for Diabetic Individuals during Ramadan, Diabetes Care , vol 33, num. 8, August2010
Categories of risks in patients with type 1 or
type 2 diabetes who fast during Ramadan
1. Very high risk
• Severe hypoglycaemia within the last 3
months prior to Ramadan.
• A history of recurrent hypoglycaemia.
• Hypoglycaemia unawareness.
• Sustained poor glycemic control.
• Ketoacidosis within the last 3 months prior to
Ramadan.
Recommendations for Diabetic Individuals during Ramadan, Diabetes Care , vol 33, num. 8, August2010
Breaking the Fast
All patients must always and immediately
end their fast if:
1. Hypoglycaemia (blood glucose of <60mg/dl).
2. Blood glucose reaches <70 mg in the first few
hours after the start of the fast, especially if
insulin, sulfonylurea drugs, or neglitinide are
taken at predawn.
3. Blood glucose exceeds 300 mg with
symptoms of hyperglycaemia.

Undergoing Ramadan Fasting:
A Five-Country Observational Study
Current Medical Research & Opinion Vol. 27, No. 6, 2011, 1237-1242
Objectives
• To determine the incidence of
hypoglycemia during Ramadan in Muslim
subjects with type 2 diabetes treated with a
sulphonylurea.
Current Medical Research & Opinion Vol. 27, No. 6, 2011, 1237-1242
Subjects & Methods

• Symptomatic hypoglycemia events 1095

across all sulphonylurea groups 3.6%, .
• Events not requiring medical assistance 3.7%
• Events requiring assistance 6.7% .
• Subjects experienced a serious complication 1.2% .
Current Medical Research & Opinion Vol. 27, No. 6, 2011, 1237-1242
Discussion
• The incidence of severe hypoglycemia requiring medical
or non medical assistance or hospitalization were less
than other studies.
• In the EPIDAR study, 2% of patients hospitalized in
comparison to 0.5% in this study. (Diabetes Care 2004; 2306-11)
• Health care resources utilization, was less in this study.
The less severe hypoglycemia events or better education
regarding the symptoms could explain this.

Main aim
• To determine the incidence of hypoglycaemic events in 100 Muslim patients with T2D
fasting during Ramadan, who are treated with dual therapy of metformin plus
vildagliptin or metformin plus sulphonylurea (SU)
Primary objectives
• the incidence of hypoglycaemic events defined as:
• Any reported symptoms by the patient and/or any blood glucose measurement of less than
3.9 mmol/L (also defined as mild or Grade 1 hypoglycaemia)
• The need for third party assistance (also defined as severe or Grade 2 hypoglycaemia);
Secondary objectives
• the change in weight;
• the change in HbA1c levels; and
• the treatment adherence during Ramadan.
VECTOR: Results - Hypoglycaemic events (HE)
Mean between-group difference in patients who experienced
at least one HE was –41·7% (p = 0·0002)
VECTOR: HbA1c
The between group difference was −0·6%
(p = 0·0262)
(7·7% to 7·2%)
(7·2% vs 7·3%)
:Adherence
Only 1 patient in the Vildagliptin group missed at least one
dose, compared with 10 patients in the SU group.
p = 0·0204
* There are an estimated 325,000 Muslims with type 2 diabetes in the UK
** Hypoglycemic event (defined as blood glucose < 3.5 mmol ⁄ l with or without symptoms)

How to Help Patients Fast Safely
• Patient Education Program.
• Select more safe drugs.
• Adjust dose if needed
• Ensure good non – sugar fluid intake.
• Avoid heavy physical exercise at
afternoon.
• Ensure good calorie distribution.
