Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are one of the established treatments used to slow the progression of CKD and improve outcomes. Could perhaps the glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists provide similar, additive, or different benefits in patients with CKD?

Over the last several decades, the popularity of cannabis (aka marijuana, weed) has increased significantly, and the recognition of medical benefits is evolving. Cannabis is often celebrated in popular culture as a relaxation-promoting, pain-relieving, harmless substance, and its use among young adults and pregnant women is increasing steadily. A recently published ancillary analysis of the Nulliparous Pregnancy Outcomes Study: Monitoring Mothers-to-Be (nuMoM2b) aimed to characterize the association between maternal cannabis use and adverse pregnancy outcomes.

We speak with three panelists who describe the use of remote patient monitoring within their cardiology practices. From measuring weight, blood pressure, heart rate, blood glucose, and even pulmonary artery pressure, the use of remote patient monitoring devices has the potential to revolutionize patient care by making more data available "real-time" and engaging patients more in their care. Nonetheless, there are significant barriers too.

It is now uncommon to see warfarin therapy initiated for stroke prevention. However, quality patient care is never a “one-size-fits-all” approach. New evidence from the FRAIL-AF trial suggests that some of our most vulnerable older adults might be better off maintained on a vitamin K antagonist rather than (automatically) switched to a direct oral anticoagulation (DOAC).

Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are the standard of care for stroke prevention in most patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Data on the safety and efficacy of DOACS in patients with obesity are limited and, at times, contradictory. What would you recommend for a patient with a BMI>40: warfarin, which requires periodic monitoring and dose adjustments, or a DOAC, which may not be as effective?

The treatment of COPD has evolved significant over the past few years. The GOLD classification system was recently changed with a greater focus on exacerbations, and the role of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) is limited to those with evidence of inflammation. Pharmacists can play a critical and positive role in the lives of people with COPD by encouraging lifestyle changes, administering vaccines to immunize against respiratory illnesses, ensuring proper inhaler technique, and assisting with medication access.

Patients with diabetes mellitus are at increased risk of dementia; therefore, knowledge about medications and their possible impact on the development of dementia is critical. Historically, metformin has been the most frequently prescribed medication for type 2 diabetes. Does metformin impact the risk of dementia? Should providers be hesitant to prescribe … or discontinue metformin therapy?

Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is a rapidly evolving field of precision medicine that studies how genetic variability influences drug response. PGx testing can improve patient care through personalized medication adjustments for a variety of conditions, including pain, mental health, cardiology, and oncology.
