Sponsor

University of California, San Diego

Enrollment

25 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this study is to learn about the effect of the study drug acetazolamide in individuals with Type 1 Diabetes. Specifically, whether acetazolamide provides benefits to the kidneys while minimizing any side effects of the drug. These changes will be measured by laboratory tests that tell us how well the kidneys are functioning.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is investigating whether a drug called acetazolamide (commonly used for altitude sickness and glaucoma) can affect blood sugar levels and kidney function in people with type 1 diabetes. It is a crossover trial, meaning each participant will try both the drug and a placebo at different times. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older with a confirmed diagnosis of type 1 diabetes - Your diabetes treatment has been stable for at least 3 months - Your kidney function is adequate (eGFR of at least 45) - Your blood bicarbonate level is normal (at least 24 meq/L) - You are willing to use contraception during the entire study **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have an allergy to acetazolamide or similar drugs (carbonic anhydrase inhibitors) - You have liver disease or drink heavily (more than 14 drinks per week) - You have a positive urine drug screen - You are pregnant or planning to become pregnant Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
