Background: Although candiduria is an expected encounter and should not be surprising in uncontrolled diabetes with glucose-enriched urine, urinary auto-brewery is rarely thought of by diabetologists. Moreover, endogenous ethanol production in humans from gut microbiome, urinary tract fungi and bacteria, and intermediary metabolism, has been reported for a long time, particularly in diabetics. Case description: To alert physicians to the overlooked implication of endogenously produced ethanol both as a biomarker for poor control of diabetes and as a complicating factor, we report this case of an elderly male smoker alcohol-abstinent insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetic patient. Because of circumstantial treatment and incompliance for one week, he developed endogenously produced alcohol intoxication. We proposed candidal urinary auto-brewery evidence sourced from the case history, urinalysis, and culture/identification tests - without excluding other sources. Fortunately, his diet and glycemic control were fairly controlled and, liver and kidney functions were almost normal. Amphotericin B I/V for five days, insulin, and a fluid therapy regimen greatly improved the case and cleared both the candiduria and ethanol from the urine and blood and the patient regained his base-line normal life. Conclusion: Symptoms of alcohol intoxication should be expected in patients with uncontrolled diabetes that most often correlates with candiduria and/or constipation. These symptoms can be exaggerated in those already suffering a degree of dementia and/or comorbid psychiatric/neurologic affections. Direct wet mount examination of urine under phase contrast microscopy would show the budding yeast cells. Appropriate antifungal, insulin and fluid therapies regained the base-line norms.
