[SGLT-2 inhibition a useful tool in the treatment of heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction].

Heart failure is highly prevalent in the population and, from a long-term point of view, a disease that is still difficult to treat. Although a number of medicinal solutions are offered in its treatment, there are still large reserves. The drug portfolio has recently been expanded to include the use of SGLT-2 inhibitors, initially for failure with reduced and now also with preserved ejection fraction. The question of the possibility of using these substances is discussed in the text, focusing on a possible explanation of their therapeutic benefit.
