This review emphasizes the importance of regular potassium monitoring, the potential benefits of combining therapies such as sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors with RAASi to reduce the risk of hyperkalemia, and the emergence of the newer non-steroidal MRA (nsMRA), finerenone, which may have a lower risk of hyperkalemia
Impact of semaglutide on kidney, cardiovascular, and mortality outcomes by baseline BMI and weight loss in people with T2D and CKDdata from the FLOW trial [Abstract 1971-LB]

Pairing the use of Ozempic or Wegovy with occasional alcohol use (in small amounts) may not pose any serious risk
