Fasting during the holy month of Ramadan is an important spiritual practice for many Muslims. This involves going without food, liquids and even medication between the hours of dawn until sunset, putting people with diabetes at significant risk of hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose), hyperglycaemia (high blood glucose), or dehydration.
The second edition of this practical guide has been fully revised to bring clinicians up to date with the latest advances and information in the management of patients with diabetes when fasting during Ramadan.
Beginning with an overview of the endocrinological effect of fasting, the following sections cover both pharmacological and non-pharmacological management techniques, such as stress management and physical activity.
The final chapters discuss the effects of fasting in specific patient groups such as children, women and the elderly; as well as management of potential complications.
