Study shows hypertension drug reduces heart attacks, kidney problems for diabetic patients.
THE results of a large international study released recently (3 September 2007) may herald a sea of change in how diabetic patients are treated.
The extensive study, which followed more than 11,000 patients in 20 countries for four years, showed strong evidence that diabetic patients - no matter whether they had hypertension or not - should be given medication to lower their blood pressure below normal levels.
With lower than normal blood pressure, the diabetics had significantly less risk of death, heart attacks and kidney problems.
