Evidence-based management of hypertension in patients with diabetes mellitus / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

Overall there is strong evidence that pharmacdosic therapy of hypertension in patients with diabetes is effective in producing substantial decrease in macrovascular and microvascular diseases.According to clinical evidence and guidelines,patients with diabetes mellitus and hypertension should receive drug treatment in addition to lifestyle/behavioral intervention.Combination therapy of rennin-ansiotensin system inhibitor with calcium channel blocker or low dose thiazide diuretics is quite efficient to reach the blood pressure target.As considering patient compliance with drug therapy,single pill combination may yield more benefits.
