The participants were among those treated at the clinic affiliated with Kerman Medical Sciences University between 2022 and 2023. The study included diabetic patients with HbA1c levels of 0.5%\u20131% higher than the therapeutic target who were not using blood sugar control medication. Each patient received a daily dose of 10\u2009mg of empagliflozin for 3 months. Changes in serum levels of iron, total iron\u2010binding capacity (TIBC), ferritin, transferrin saturation, inflammatory markers IL\u20106, C\u2010reactive protein (CRP), and uric acid were measured before and 3 months after commencing empagliflozin.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Three months after starting empagliflozin, the mean FPG and Hb A1c levels showed a drop (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.05). The serum ferritin level decreased, and TIBC increased significantly (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.05) following empagliflozin treatment. Additionally, the serum levels of CRP (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.05), IL\u20106 (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001), and uric acid (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001) declined. Analysis of the correlation between serum ferritin level and IL\u20106 and uric acid before and after empagliflozin use revealed a positive correlation between serum ferritin and IL\u20106 (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.04) and uric acid (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.03). However, no significant correlation was observed between the change in ferritin and CRP levels (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.22).\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Following empagliflozin treatment, serum levels of ferritin and inflammatory markers interleukin\u20106, CRP, and uric acid declined, indicating a significant relationship between SGLT2 inhibition, inflammation, and iron metabolism. Furthermore, the correlation between ferritin and inflammatory markers suggests that reduced ferritin levels may result from reduced inflammation.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n
