Abstract:Background:
In patients with heart failure (HF), discontinued medical therapy because of adverse events (AE) is associated with high mortality. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treated with sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have a lower risk of HF, but AE sometimes occur with the introduction of SGLT2i. In order to use SGLT2i safely in patients with HF, we investigated factors associated with AE following the introduction of SGLT2i.
