WEBINAR SERIES: Modern medicines series SGLT2 Inhibitors: What we need to know

About the series

Over the first 3 programmes in this series, Professor Cliff Bailey and colleagues provided concise evidence-based guidance to contemporary medications and their application in daily care with the aim of assessing the clinical evidence and opportunities offered by sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in the management of type 2 diabetes and its cardio-renal complications. These can now be viewed on our on-demand page, see below.

Still to come in the series

Keep up-to-date with the latest data and guidance with 2 further webinars in this series which will follow later in the year. Professor Cliff Bailey will provide all the latest updates, news and guidance around SGLT2 inhibitors from EASD & ADA in October and then finally from AHA in November.

To ensure your place, book now and we will notify you of the dates in due course.
