Pregabalin use for noncancer pain linked to increased risk of HF

10 Aug 2025

In the treatment of chronic noncancer pain, the use of pregabalin appears to be associated with a higher incidence of heart failure (HF) when compared with gabapentin, according to a retrospective cohort study.

MRA initiation during hospitalization tied to improved outcomes in HFrEF

08 Aug 2025

In patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), initiation of a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) appears to result in better postdischarge outcomes, regardless of creatinine elevation, as shown in a study.

Risk of MACE higher with sulfonylureas vs DPP4is

02 Aug 2025

In the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes, sulfonylureas pose an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP4is), according to a study.
