Heart Failure – Current Treatment – Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis – Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction (US)
Drug treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is well established, backed by a wealth of supporting evidence from clinical trials. ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and beta blockers are the first-line treatment, usually in combination with diuretics when fluid overload is present. The addition of a second- or third-line treatment is often needed to better manage the disease. Given the heavily genericized nature of the market, branded agents have had difficulty establishing a foothold. However, use of the angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor Entresto and SGLT-2 inhibitors has grown steadily since their launch. This report provides important insight into how these agents are used in the management of HFrEF and how practices are evolving.
