Finerenone, sold under the brand name Kerendia and Firialta, is a medication used to reduce the risk of kidney function decline, kidney failure, cardiovascular death, non-fatal heart attacks, and hospitalization for heart failure in adults with chronic kidney disease associated with type2 diabetes.[8] Finerenone is a non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA).[7] It is taken orally (swallowed by mouth).
Common side effects include hyperkalemia (high levels of potassium), hypotension (low blood pressure), and hyponatremia (low levels of sodium).[8]
Finerenone was approved for medical use in the United States in July 2021,[8][10] and in the European Union in February 2022.[9] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration considers it to be a first-in-class medication.[11]
