The studies showed that a reduction in NT-proBNP levels was observed during treatment with empagliflozin (the active ingredient in Forxiga) (on average 244 pg/ml and Med. 29 pg/ml).
NT-proBNP is a hormone released by the muscle cells of the heart chambers during an increase in their tension, with increasing load. An increase in the concentration of this hormone is observed mainly in heart and lung diseases, as well as hyperthyroidism, Cushing's syndrome, primary aldosteronism, cirrhosis of the liver with ascites and renal failure. Its concentration can also be affected by drugs such as corticosteroids, thyroid hormones, diuretics (diuretics), ACE inhibitors, and adrenergic agonists and antagonists.
I enclose the leaflet of the medicine:
