Short-Term Costs in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Treated with Dapagliflozin: a Retrospective Cohort Study

Expert Rev Pharmacoecon Outcomes Res. 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1080/14737167.2023.2237679

This retrospective observational cohort study described the impact of dapagliflozin on short-term medical costs in propensity matched patients with stage 3 CKD.
