Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors: The pleiotropic mechanisms of actions.

CONCLUSION: The underlying mechanisms responsible for the SGLT-2 inhibitor actions, are pleiotropic and occur in the kidneys, as well as in other target organs. The comprehension of these mechanisms, not only permits us to understand their actions better, but it could also help us to predict more of their undisclosed favorable actions, as well as their rare adverse effects.
