Place in Therapy – Monotherapy
• Recent-onset diabetes and mild hyperglycemia (A1c≤7.5%)
• Metformin is preferred
• If intolerance or contraindication to metformin
• SGLT2 inhibitors compared to placebo •Decreasing A1c•Decrease fasting glucose

Place in Therapy – Combination Therapy
• Initial A1c >7.5% – start dual therapy
• Target A1c not reached in 3 months with metformin – add second agent
• No preferred agent to be combined with metformin
• SGLT2 inhibitors studies have demonstrated improved glycemic control with combination and add-on therapy•Metformin•Sulfonylurea•Thiazolidinedione•Insulin

Patient Centered Approach When Considering SGLT2 Inhibitors
• Effectiveness independent of insulin
• Can ↓ A1c by ~1%• Combine with other oral
anti-diabetics and insulin• Low risk for hypoglycemia • Small amount of weight loss• Small ↓ in blood pressure
• Adequate renal function required
• ↑ urinary frequency• Electrolyte disturbances• ↑ risk of UTIs and vaginal
yeast infections• Orthostatic hypotension• Lipid abnormalities (↑ LDL)• Cost
