Managing Diabetes and Preventing Heart Disease: Have We Found a Safe and Effective Agent?

CONCLUSION: Liraglutide, empagliflozin, and canagliflozin have been shown to be superior to placebo in improving CV outcomes. However, there are differences among agents in terms of HF and peripheral arterial disease outcomes. Future studies should focus on evaluating other clinical CV outcomes in patients without existing CVD and perhaps single drug regimens for diabetes. PMID: 30516068 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
