Adverse effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on bone health

Abstract
Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors offer attractive metabolic and cardiorenal benefits for patients with type 2 diabetes, but are associated with a number of safety issues. A recent study documented that SGTL2 inhibition indirectly triggers the FGF23/1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D/parathyroid hormone axis, which may contribute to adverse effects on bone health.
