SGLT-2 Inhibitors Tied to Lower Risk for Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases in Adults With T2D

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are associated with a reduced risk for autoimmune rheumatic diseases.

According to a study, SGLT-2 inhibitors are associated with a reduced risk for autoimmune rheumatic diseases compared with sulfonylureas among adults with type 2 diabetes.

The researchers found that the weighted incidence rate was 51.90 and 58.41 per 100,000 person-years in individuals initiating SGLT-2 inhibitors and sulfonylureas, respectively.
