Core Tip	Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors substantially reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure (HF) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Accordingly, these agents should be considered in all patients with T2DM and HF with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction regardless of HbA1c levels. However, more studies are needed to clarify the role of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors in patients with T2DM and HF with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, which is the commonest type of HF in this population.
