Using SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists together in heart failure patients

Updated

Abstract

Heart failure is a major cardiovascular complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

  • Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors may improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with heart failure.
  • Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are also associated with better cardiovascular results.
  • The comparative effectiveness of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists in heart failure is not clearly established.
  • The potential benefits of using both SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists together for heart failure management remain uncertain.
