Effect of ARNI (Sacubitril/Valsartan) and SGLT2 Inhibitors (Dapagliflozin) either alone or in Combination on Heart Failure: An Exploration of Novelty
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) have claimed millions of lives, despite the efforts of medical professionals.There are several treatment methods for blocking a few neurohormonal cascades; however, it is debatable because there are few hypotheses, which claim that in Heart Failure (HF), these systems tend to activate potential counter-regulatory mechanisms.Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitors (ARNI) are developed to modulate both Renin-Angiotensi n-Aldosterone-System and Natriuretic Peptide, regulating neurohormonal cascade in HF.LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan) is the first-in-class ARNI, approved for managing HF.Initially, ARNI was developed to manage Hypertension, later the FDA regulatory label was expanded for the management of HF.Dapagliflozin belongs to the class of SGLT2 inhibitors that have shown potentially beneficial effects in HF.Would the two medications, which have distinct mechanisms of action but a similar effect-a decrease in the risk of HF-show additive or synergistic effects when taken together?India, known as "The Chronic Heart Disease Capital of the World", is accounting sharp rise in sudden cardiac death with young adults being the worst sufferers.This review inference that, using ARNI and Dapagliflozin together may have a larger positive effect on HF patients' quality of life by lowering their need for hospitalization due to HF deterioration.
