Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been shown to reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in large studies of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), chronic heart failure (CHF) with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and patients after percutaneous coronary intervention. This review analyzes the results of large randomized clinical trials that assess the effectiveness and safety of SGLT2 inhibitors in DM2 patients with varying degrees of CHF.
