NICE recommends Jardiance for chronic heart failure

5 October 2023

UK health technology assessor the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has backed the use of Jardiance (empagliflozin) for a new indication.

In its final draft guidance issued today, the NICE is recommending German family-owned pharm major Boehringer Ingelheim’s Jardiance as an option for the treatment of symptomatic chronic heart failure with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction in adults.

This recommendation will expand the use of empagliflozin, which was previously recommended by the NICE in March 2022 for treating symptomatic chronic heart failure in adults with reduced ejection fraction, as part of optimized standard of care.
