Among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, those with concomitant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are at higher risk of mortality and adverse cardiorenal outcomes, including heart failure, according to post hoc analyses of the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial. However, these outcomes can be prevented with empagliflozin treatment, regardless of the presence of COPD.
