[Patient with type 2 diabetes and progressive chronic kidney disease].

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and severe complication in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). While inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system remained for a long time the only medications that had proven nephroprotective effects, several other pharmacological classes also recently showed such a benefit : sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors (gliflozins), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide), and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA, finerenone). This clinical vignette aims at explaining the pharmacotherapy strategy for a patient with T2D who presents a progressive CKD. The interest of prescribing a combination of several medications with complementary actions that had proven a nephroprotection is emphasized.
