Does antihypertensive therapy reduce cardiovascular disease events in patients with diabetes and hypertension?
Hypertension and diabetes are intertwined metabolic conditions that synergistically increase cardiovascular risk, highlighting the importance of lifestyle and pharmacological interventions.
Sunkara et al. (2017) conducted a review in Hypertension and Diabetes. Antihypertensive therapy and lifestyle modifications was evaluated. Hypertension and diabetes share common pathophysiologic pathways, and optimization of lifestyle along with appropriate antihypertensive therapy remains the cornerstone in preventing cardiovascular disease.
