Women's health and kidney protective medications.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We discuss the sex-based differences in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of kidney protective medications and their implications on women's health.
RECENT FINDINGS: A critical examination of adverse drug reactions highlights the underrepresentation of women in clinical trials for kidney and cardiovascular protective drugs, such as SGLT2 inhibitors, ACE inhibitors, and endothelin receptor antagonists. This underscores the need for sex-specific analyses in clinical studies to accurately assess medication efficacy and safety.
SUMMARY: The research demonstrates that women are more likely to experience adverse events and less likely to benefit from certain treatments, emphasizing the urgent need for healthcare providers to adopt a sex-informed approach in prescribing practices. Future research should prioritize sex differences from the outset to enhance understanding and improve clinical outcomes for women with chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular conditions.
