Overview
Hypertension is a common co-morbidity associated with patients of diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes. Proper management of both these conditions are important to prevent future chronic complications like cardiovascular, nephrology and other complications.
Supportive trial data
Study name:LIFE study, 2002[1]
- Study design: Double blind, randomised, parallel-group trial
- Sample size: 1195 patients with diabetes, hypertension, left-ventricular hypertrophy on electrocardiograms
- Drugs: Losartan or Atenolol
- Study period: 4 years
- Study results: Losartan was found to be more effective than atenolol in reducing composite endpoints like cardiovascular morbidity and all causes mortality in patients with hypertension, diabetes, and left-ventricular hypertrophy.
Study name: Fosinopril Versus Amlodipine Cardiovascular Events Randomized Trial, (FACET), 1998
- Study design: Open label, randomized trial
- Sample size: 380 hypertensive diabetics patient
- Drugs: Fosinopril (20 mg/day) or amlodipine (10 mg/day)
- Study period: 3.5 years
- Inclusion criteria- NIDDM and hypertension (SBP > 140 mmHg or DBP > 90 mmHg).
- Exclusion criteria- History of coronary heart disease or stroke, serum creatinine > 1.5 mg/dl, albuminuria > 40 micrograms/min, and use of lipid-lowering drugs, aspirin, or antihypertensive agents other than beta-blockers or diuretics.
- Study results: Fosinopril lowered the risk of the composite endpoints of acute myocardial infarction, stroke, or hospitalization due to angina more compared to amlodipine (hazards ratio = 0.49, 95% CI = 0.26-0.95). However, no significant difference in total serum cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, HbA1c, fasting serum glucose, or plasma insulin was found [2].
