Core Tip Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, primarily developed for diabetes, have shown potential benefits in managing liver conditions. Studies report improved liver enzymes, lipid profile, insulin sensitivity, and stiffness in steatotic liver disease. In patients with decompensated cirrhosis of the liver with refractory ascites, SGLT2 inhibitors reduce the need for paracentesis due to their natriuretic and diuretic effects. Emerging evidence also suggests a role in preventing hepatocellular carcinoma. However, associated adverse events necessitate careful consideration. Further research is crucial to fully understand their mechanisms, optimize treatment strategies, and establish clear clinical guidelines, especially regarding the benefit-risk ratio and combination therapies.
