Abstract
Recently, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been a topic for oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) for diabetes. It suggested positive effects on the heart and kidneys from EMPAREG-OUTCOME study, CANVAS program, and DECLARE-TIMI 58 study. SGLT2i are expected to become the useful agents that transcend OHAs, from three recent reports. They are i) Dapagliflozin in Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection trial (DAPA-HF), ii) the Empagliflozin outcome trial in Patients with chronic heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction trial (EMPEROR-Reduced), and iii) dapagliflozin-chronic kidney disease trial (DAPA-CKD). SGLT2i may become an agent for late-aging and longevity in the future.
