FDA
Heart failure occurs when the heart does not pump enough blood to support the body’s needs. Farxiga is approved to treat class II-IV heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Farxiga is a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. The clinical trial shows improved survival and reduced the need for hospitalization in adults with heart failure.
Farxiga is also FDA-approved to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes.
