Diabetes and Ramadan

This year, Ramadan is from the 10th of March to the 9th of April.

Choosing to fast is a very personal decision, however if you are unsure if you should fast, please speak to your Imam and one of our Diabetes Team.

If you decide to fast for Ramadan and you have Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes, it is very important to plan ahead and be well prepared. Some medication changes may need to be made in order to keep you safe while fasting.
