Sglt2i drugs

Sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a new type of glucose-lowering drug that can reduce blood glucose by inhibiting its reabsorption in proximal tubules and by promoting urinary glucose excretion. SGLT2i are widely used in the clinical treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In recent studies, SGLT2i were found to not only reduce blood glucose but also protect the

SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are new drugs for patients with heart failure (HF) irrespective of diabetes. However, the mechanisms of SGLT2i in HF remain elusive. This article discusses the current clinical evidence for using SGLT2i in different types of heart failure and provides an overview about the possible underlying mechanisms.

Recommendation for addition of an SGLT2i (or GLP-1RA where SGLT2i is not tolerated or contraindicated) to other glucose lowering medication(s) in adults

When Trulicity is added to existing metformin and/or pioglitazone therapy, the current dose of metformin and/or pioglitazone can be continued. SGLT2i When Trulicity is added to existing metformin and/or sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) therapy, the current dose of metformin and/or SGLT2i can be continued.

Antihyperglycemic medication use was assessed on the drug class level including metformin, sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones, SGLT2i

In comparison to non-SGLT2i antihyperglycemic medications, there was no statistically significant increase of risk in SGLT2i use for type 2 diabetic patients . The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Association (EMA) respectively issued drug safety reports on DKA risk in SGLT2i patients with DKA-like symptoms at health

When Trulicity is added to existing metformin and/or pioglitazone therapy, the current dose of metformin and/or pioglitazone can be continued. SGLT2i When Trulicity is added to existing metformin and/or sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) therapy, the current dose of metformin and/or SGLT2i can be continued.
