What are the treatments for high urinary ketone bodies

The cause of high urinary ketone bodies may be diabetic ketosis, or it may be due to starvation, alcoholism, etc.. Diabetic ketosis should be heavily rehydrated, insulin hypoglycemia, etc.; other causes of high urinary ketone bodies should be treated for the cause of the disease, such as intravenous glucose supplementation. Causes of high urinary ketone bodies mainly include diabetic ketosis caused by poor glycemic control in diabetic patients, as well as alcoholism, starvation, drugs and so on. The most common is diabetic ketoacidosis, which should be promptly rehydrated with saline, while insulin continuous intravenous drip treatment should be carried out to correct the electrolyte acid-base balance disorder. Blood glucose, urine glucose and urine ketone should be monitored regularly during treatment, and the dose of medication should be adjusted according to the condition. People with starvation and alcoholism have insufficient sugar in their bodies and cannot break down and utilize glucose, leading to fat mobilization to produce ketone bodies. Treatment should be directed at the cause of the disease and supplemented with glucose and energy. High urinary ketone bodies should be timely to the hospital, under the guidance of the doctor’s treatment.
