, Hye-Sun Park, Yong-ho Lee, Byung-Wan Lee, Eun Seok Kang, Bong-Soo Cha Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are commonly prescribed drugs for the treatment of depression in the patients with diabetes. Here, we report a case of paroxetineinduced severe recurrent hypoglycemia that developed in a 35-year-old woman with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes complicated by diabetic nephropathy and neuropathy. She discontinued her daily insulin therapy 2 months after the introduction of paroxetine, but hypoglycemic events were sustained. After discontinuation of paroxetine, no more hypoglycemic events occurred.
