Mechanism of action

SGLT2 inhibitors block the reabsorption of filtered glucose in the proximal tubule of the kidney, leading to increased urinary glucose excretion and lower blood glucose levels. This mechanism is independent of insulin secretion and provides cardiovascular and renal protective benefits beyond glycemic control.
