Empagliflozin in Heart Failure Dialysis Patients

June 5, 2025 updated by: nooshin dalili, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences

Safety and Efficacy of Empagliflozin on Heart Failure Dialysis Patients

Empagliflozin is not still approved for glomerular filtration rate < 20 cc/min/1.73m2. Considering the cardiac and renal benefits of this drug, the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of Empagliflozin for heart failure dialysis patients seems to be mandatory.
