How well combined treatments work for people with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes using real-world data

Updated

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus type 2 is the primary driver of chronic kidney disease.

  • Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors are foundational treatments for chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes.
  • Recent studies suggest sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors may provide renal benefits.
  • Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are also associated with renal health improvements.
  • The effects of combining sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are not well understood.
