Heart attack breakthrough? common drug may shield your heart from future failure

NCT ID NCT05764057

Summary

This study is testing if dapagliflozin, a medication originally for diabetes, can help prevent heart failure in people who have just had a serious heart attack and have weakened heart function. About 450 participants will take either the drug or a placebo pill daily for six months, on top of their standard heart medications. The main goal is to see if the drug helps the heart pump better and prevents harmful changes in heart shape, which are key predictors of future heart problems and death.
