Abstract:
The relationship between Sulfonylureas(SUs) and cardiovascular (CV) risks has attracted great attention.Previous studies have illustrated that some SUs increase CV risk in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients;while others do not.Clinical studies have found that the CV risks of different SUs may be different.Compared with other SUs;glimepiride and gliclazide may have lower CV risks.Here we reviewed evidence-based CV safety of SUs and the recent research progress.
