Acetazolamide for type 1 diabetes
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a medicine called acetazolamide (used for altitude sickness) can help people with type 1 diabetes. It compares how your body responds while on the drug versus a placebo, using a crossover design so everyone gets both treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have type 1 diabetes and have been on stable treatment for at least 3 months.
- Your kidney function (eGFR) is 45 or higher on a recent blood test.
- You are not allergic to acetazolamide or similar drugs.
- You are not taking certain water pills (diuretics) like furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide.

This trial tests a new way to give a medicine called anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) with or without verapamil, a blood pressure drug. It aims to slow down the loss of insulin-making cells in people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.
This trial tests a combination of treatments to lower the risk of heart disease and kidney problems in people with type 1 diabetes who already have some complications or higher risk. If you qualify, you will receive extra care aimed at preventing heart attacks, strokes, and kidney failure.
This study tests if verapamil (a common blood pressure medication) can help children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes keep making their own insulin for longer. It aims to preserve the body's own insulin-producing cells, which may reduce the amount of insulin injections needed.
This trial tests how acetazolamide affects your body's fluid levels at high altitude. It might help understand if the drug can prevent altitude sickness.
This trial tests how two diabetes medications, SGLT2i and pioglitazone, affect ketone production in people with type 1 diabetes. It aims to find new ways to improve blood sugar control.
This trial tests whether taking acetazolamide by mouth can help prevent or improve worsening (decompensation) of heart failure after you needed IV water pills (diuretics). It’s mainly for adults with a recent heart-failure flare and specific heart/lab signs, while carefully excluding certain low blood pressure, kidney issues, and electrolyte or acid–base problems.
