Neuroprotective benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors unclear
There appears to be inconclusive evidence on the potential of the novel class of glucose-lowering drugs, namely sodium glucose-linked cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, in stroke therapy, according to the results of a systematic review. This is because few animal studies are available, and some of the clinical studies evaluate combinations of drug treatments of SGLT2 and other drugs related to diabetes treatment.
