Use of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors in Asian patients with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease: An Asian perspective and expert recommendations

Early onset of type 2 diabetes and a high prevalence of co-morbidities predispose the Asian population to a high risk for, and rapid progression of, diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Apart from renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have been shown to d...
