Episode 164: Managing Kidney Disease: Medications for CKD treatment that help kidney patients live longer. Managing Kidney Disease involves eating healthy, being active, and avoiding bad habits that can damage your kidneys. Some kidney patients may also be able to improve their health and life expectancy with doctor-prescribed medications. Dr. Rosansky will discuss the latest medications ( including Canagliflozin, Dapagliflozin (Farxiga), & Empagliflozin (Jardiance)) that have been shown to improve the quality of life and help people with kidney disease live longer. Dr. Rosansky is a retired Nephrologist and author of the book Learn The Facts About Kidney Disease.

AstraZeneca’s FARXIGA® (dapagliflozin), a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, has been approved in the US to reduce the risk of sustained estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), cardiovascular (CV) death and hospitalization for heart failure (hHF) in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at risk of progression. The approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was based on positive results from the DAPA-CKD Phase III trial. The decision follows the Priority Review designation granted by the FDA earlier this year.
