Comparative Efficacy of Dapagliflozin and Empagliflozin of a Fixed Dose in Heart Failure: A Network Meta-Analysis

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fcvm.2022.869272/full

BackgroundThe efficacy of dapagliflozin and empagliflozin in sodium-glucose cotransport-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) in patients with heart failure (HF) has been discovered. However, which drug could improve varied prognostic outcomes has not...


Recommendations: Overall, 10 mg/day dapagliflozin may be the optimal recommendation for its premium and comprehensive effect on improving the prognosis of patients with HF compared to 10 mg/day empagliflozin.

The sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor empagliflozin ( Jardiance - Boehringer Ingelheim) was approved by the FDA in 2021 to reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure (HF) and...



CONCLUSION: Addition of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor empagliflozin (Jardiance) to standard treatment for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction reduced the composite risk of hospitalization for heart failure or cardiovascular death in patients with an LVEF >40%, with or without type 2 diabetes....
