1. WHAT IS THIS MEDICINE INTENDED FOR?
Kerendia is indicated to reduce the risk of sustained eGFR decline,
end-stage kidney disease, cardiovascular death,
nonfatal myocardial infarction, and hospitalization for heart failure
in adult patients with chronic kidney disease associated
with type 2 diabetes.
THERAPEUTIC GROUP: diuretics, aldosterone antagonists.
Kerendia contains the active substance finerenone. Finerenone works by
blocking the action of certain hormones
)mineralocorticoids( that can damage the kidneys, heart and blood
vessels.
Chronic kidney disease is a long-term condition. The kidneys keep
getting worse at removing waste and fluids from the
blood.
Type 2 diabetes develops when the body cannot maintain normal blood
sugar levels. The body does not produce enough
of the hormone insulin or cannot use the insulin properly. This leads
to a high level of sugar in the blood.

You are sensitive )allergic( to the active ingredient or to any of the
other ingredients in this medicine )see section 6(.
