Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The mechanistic effects of empagliflozin on platelet function profiles have not yet been ascertained.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: SGLT2 inhibitor
Phase 2/Phase 3

Detailed Description

Sodium GLucose Transport 2 inhibitors (SGLT2I), including empagliflozin, reduce the likelihood of hospitalization for heart failure and death in persons with type 2 diabetes, of which the mechanism has not been fully elucidated. The mechanistic effects of empagliflozin on platelet function profiles have not yet been ascertained. It remains unclear if this reduction in cardiovascular death is mediated by decreased platelet reactivity.
