Published: April 2023

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a class of oral glucose-lowering agents commonly used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. With increased use, there has been an increase in the incidence of the rare but life-threatening complication of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis. A common but underappreciated precipitant is colonoscopy. In this work, we outline the pathophysiology of the interaction between colonoscopy and SGLT2i use, the evidence regarding SGLT2i use in the periprocedural setting and Australian Diabetes Society guidelines.

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) and atrial Fibrillation (AF) are among the most common health issues. They are responsible for the highest rates of morbidity and mortality. The importance of sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) in treating DM has increased significantly in recent years.

Background: Acute Heart Failure (AHF) presents as a serious pathophysiological disease with significant morbidity and mortality rates, requiring immediate medical intervention. Traditional treatment involves diuretics and vasodilators, but a subset of patients develop resistance due to acute cardiorenal syndrome. Dapagliflozin, categorized as a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), has emerged as a promising therapy for AHF, demonstrating substantial benefits in reducing both mortality and morbidity among patients.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are the only medications that improve clinical outcomes regardless of baseline left ventricular ejection fraction. Despite the recognized effectiveness of SGLT-2 inhibitors, there remains a paucity of research on the discontinuation of these medications. The objective of this study is to analyze the rate of discontinuation of SGLT-2 inhibitors, to evaluate the impact of discontinuation on the clinical outcome, and to identify the factors associated with discontinuation.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2Is) and angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) may cause potential renal damage, the combined impact of SGLT2Is and ARNI on acute kidney injury (AKI) remains unclear. This pharmacovigilance study conducted a disproportionality analysis using reports from the FAERS database. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was used as an estimate for detecting AKI signal.
