ABSTRACT
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) causes a progressive decline in renal function, leading to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), and increases the likelihood of cardiovascular events and mortality. The recent introduction of the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor has been a game changer in managing chronic kidney disease (CKD) and congestive heart failure (CHF). These agents not only slow down the progression of kidney disease but also have cardioprotective benefits, including for patients with congestive heart failure and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Some evidence suggests that they can decrease the risk of stroke as well. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the role of SGLT-2 inhibitors in CKD and CHF and their efficacy in stroke prevention. This review includes a comparison with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist and finerenone; focuses on safety data, the potential benefits beyond glycemic control, and a review of significant trials; and provides guidance in clinical practice.
