CONCLUSION
SGLT2 inhibitors have a unique mechanism of action
and have the potential to become a new treatment for
T2DM. Several phase III trials with these compounds are
ongoing and if their efficacy and safety profile are proven
to be adequate, these agents may gain a place in the
management of T2DM, particularly where weight gain is
a concern. The potential for use as an insulin-sparing
agent in patients on insulin has been highlighted in a
recent trial and a future role in the management of type 1
diabetes mellitus cannot be ruled out, although SGLT2
inhibitors have not yet been tested for this indication.
