A Case Report of Insulin Edema Syndrome

Insulin therapy rarely causes edema when rapidly correcting glucose. It is often unrecognised. Although uncommon, this occurrence usually occurs in individuals who are started on insulin treatment and have increased glucose levels. This causes a rapid correction and tight control of glucose levels. After alternative causes of acute edoema have been ruled out, insulin-induced edoema is diagnosed. Additionally, we will talk about the hypothesised mechanisms behind insulin's ability to cause edoema in this case report
