About

The aim of this study is to assess the effect of treatment with flozin (dapagliflozin 10mg once a day) on haemodynamic parameters and myocardial and peripheral vascular remodeling in patients with NYHA class II-III heart failure.

Full description

In the available literature, there are reports of beneficial effects of flozins on improving myocardial systolic and diastolic function and isolated reports of effects on regression of organ damage (heart, vessels). These drugs significantly improve the prognosis of patients with heart failure, reduce total and cardiovascular mortality, reduce the number of exacerbations and the need for hospitalization, and have a beneficial effect on improving quality of life regardless of coexisting diabetes. New properties demonstrating the pleiotropic effect of the flozins are constantly being discovered. Drugs in this group are highly potent, selective and reversible inhibitors of the sodium ion-dependent glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2). The flozins have a low risk of side effects.
