Table 3.

Guideline-directed use of proteinuria-reducing therapies for adults with kidney disease [3,35,36,37,38]. * Non-steroidal MRA can be initiated for patients with eGFR ≥ 25 mL/min/1.73 m2. ** SGLT2i can be initiated for patients with eGFR ≥ 20 mL/min/1.73 m2 and continued if eGFR declines after initiation. eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; GLP-1 RA: glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists; MRA: mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists; RASi: renin-angiotensin-system inhibitors; SGLT2i: sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors; T1D: type 1 diabetes; T2D: type 2 diabetes; UACR: urine albumin/creatinine ratio.
