What are the benefits of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i)?
All of the above?
#Flozinators we know #flozins are great & are beneficial in CKD & CV disease, but do they really prevent kidney stones?
How do they work? Does it have anything to do with their effects on magnesium or uric acid? Does the presence of DM make a difference?
Stone formation risk ↑ in DM:
↑ uric acid excretion💎
Impaired ammoniagenesis
↓ in urinary pH levels
Dehydration with urinary concentration 🥤

#MRAs were used in 37% of EMPEROR-Preserved study participants. MRA use was higher in those with a more congested clinical picture, with more HF🏥 within the past 12 months, worse HF symptoms, mildly reduced EF, higher NT-proBNP levels, and more use of loop diuretic agents
The effect of empagliflozin to reduce HF 🏥 was more pronounced in MRA nonusers than in MRA users, particularly in the subgroup of patients with LVEFs ≥50% @HFpEF @DrRyanPDaly @AndrewJSauer @AnastasiaSMihai @DrMarthaGulati @ErinMichos @ShelleyZieroth @mvaduganathan

2/ What about DPP-4s?

Usually well tolerated because they ONLY release insulin with a glucose load

So we don’t have to be too concerned if the patient will be NPO!
3/ What about GLP-1s? They act similarly to DPP-4s.

When should we avoid GLP-1s?
