Ipragliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, reduces bodyweight and fat mass, but not muscle mass, in Japanese type 2 diabetes patients treated with insulin: A randomized clinical trial.

Ipragliflozin treatment for 24 weeks resulted in reduced BW, mainly from fat mass loss. Muscle mass and bone mineral content were maintained. Further study is necessary to elucidate the long-term effects of ipragliflozin.
