Core Tip In a real-world observational study of 347 Latin American patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease finerenone demonstrated significant short-term benefits. After six months, treatment led to major reductions in the urinary albumin-creatinine ratio and blood pressure. This efficacy was achieved with very good tolerance; the estimated glomerular filtration rate remained stable, and serum potassium increases were minimal, highlighting a low risk of hyperkalemia. This study provides crucial real-world evidence supporting finerenone’s safety and effectiveness.
