Safety aspects of SGLT2 inhibitors for treatment of heart failure
Safety aspects of SGLT2 inhibitors for treatment of heart failure
Understanding the safety profile of a drug is essential for the treatment of patients with heart failure in order for HCPs and patients to be aware of the potential risks and benefit of a treatment option. This module details the safety profile of SGLT2 inhibitors and the effects for patients with HF.

Safety profile of SGLT2 inhibitors in CVOTs in patients with T2D and high CV risk or eCVD
DAPA-HF: safety profile in patients with HFrEF
Serious AEs and prespecified AEs of interest observed in the EMPEROR-Reduced trial in patients with HFrEF
In EMPEROR-Reduced, there was an initial dip in eGFR and later stabilisation, common in SGLT2 inhibitor treatment

DAPA-HF: AEs of interest by diabetes status
No meaningful blood glucose-lowering effect in patients without type 2 diabetes with SGLT2 inhibitors
In DAPA-HF there was an initial dip in eGFR with a later stabilisation, regardless of T2D status

Genital infections with SGLT2 inhibitors are common, typically mild to moderate in severity and easily managed
The safety profile of SGLT2 inhibitors is well established and includes AEs such as hypoglycaemia
Diabetic ketoacidosis risk in patients with type 2 diabetes using SGLT2 inhibitors
In periods of acute illness, all patients should follow “sick‑day” rules to minimise risk of complications
