Two thirds of all deaths in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are from cardiovascular disease, making risk management crucial1. In this lecture, Cardiologist Prof Andrew Sindone and Endocrinologist Dr Ted Wu discuss the importance of SGLT2 inhibitors and the ground-breaking evidence that has seen this class of drugs now PBS-listed alongside metformin for all T2D patients with CVD, high CV risk or First Nations Australians, with no longer any HbA1c requirement2. This recognises the significant cardiovascular benefits the class offers T2D patients.
