In this video we will discuss whether it is possible for diabetic patients to fast during the month of Ramadan (kya sugar kay mareez ko roza rakhna chahiye), what the risks could be of fasting for a diabetic patient (sugar aur roza), and how these risks can be minimised.

We will discuss the guidelines for diabetics patients in Ramadan (ramadan fasting diabetic) including whether it is advisable for diabetes patients to fast (kya sugar ka mareez roza rakh sakte hai)? Firstly, it must be said that the decision to fast or not is an individual decision. However, from the medical perspective the answer is not so clear cut. Some diabetic patient can do fasting without any problems and for other patients fasting can be very risky (roza or sugar).

What are the potential complications of Ramzan fasting for diabetic patients (ramzan and sugar)? There are three main risks of fasting which are hypoglycaemia (a drop in blood sugar level below the normal range), dehydration, and hyperglycaemia (a very high blood sugar level). All of these can be dangerous.

To determine whether it is safe to fast or not it is strongly advised that diabetic patients consult their doctor prior to Ramadan starting (diabetes patient roze kaise rakhen). Several factors are considered when deciding whether it is safe for a particular patient to fast, including whether the patient has Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, how good the diabetes control has been in recent months (according to the HBA1c) level, is there any history of hypoglycaemia and does the patient take medications which predispose to the risk of hypoglycaemia.

If it is felt that the diabetic patient can fast then a detailed plan should be provided by the doctor to help to minimise the risk of complications arising (sugar ke mareez ka roza rakhna). This fasting advice in ramzan for diabetics patients would typically include instructions relating to:
• Increased frequency of blood sugar testing during the fast
• What action to take in case you start to feel unwell during the fast, or develop hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia
• Whether your diabetes medication require adjustment in terms of dose and timing
It is important to strictly follow the ramadan plan for sugar patients from the doctor in order to help minimise the chances of complications.

Hypoglycaemia is one of the most concerning risks of fasting which is more likely to occur if the patient is taking medications which increase the chances of the blood sugar level dropping (fasting blood sugar level in ramadan). Examples of such medications include insulin and gliclazide. Symptoms of hypoglycaemia include sweating, palpitations, tremor, feeling of hunger, dizziness, palpitations and pale skin. If hypoglycaemia is not treated immediately then there is a risk of losing consciousness. Therefore, it is important to monitor blood sugar level frequently during the fast and to always carry a sugary item with you to instantly treat hypoglycaemia, such as fruit juice or glucose tablets.

It is important for diabetic patients to have a meal for Sehri (Sehri plan for sugar patients). This is because eating just before the fast begins will help to reduce the chances of hypoglycaemia developing. It is advisable to eat food items which are digested slowly and provide a steady supply of glucose into the bloodstream throughout the fast. These food items would include Multigrain bread, Oat-based cereal, Basmati rice, Beans, Pulses, Lentils, and Fruits and Vegetables.

For the iftari meal it is advised to eat with the same care that diabetic patients are supposed to take outside of Ramadan (diabetes and Ramadan). This means avoiding excessive amounts of fried food and sweet food items. It is generally okay to break the fast with one or two dates. It is advisable to drink plenty of water in order to keep well hydrated. Caffeinated drinks should be avoided as they can lead to water loss and dehydration.

Taraveeh prayers can be long and tiring for diabetic patients (diabetes and Ramzan). To minimise the risk of hypoglycaemia and dehydration during the tareveeh paryer it is advisable to drink lots of water between iftar and taraveeh prayer and have a snack before leaving for taraveeh. It is also advised to carry a water bottle and a sugary item with you to the taraveeh prayer.
