title: [The effect of therapeutic diuresis in carbohydrate tolerance in essential hypertension (author's transl)].
abstract: Carbohydrate tolerance was studied in ten patients with essential hypertension, both before and after one year of treatment with a diuretic: bumethanide. No significant differences were found in glucose and insulin values. Results show hyperglycemia aggravation to be minimal with bumethanide, although it is necessary to repeat determinations after several years of treatment as it has been demonstrated that hyperglycemia is aggravated in patients with essential hypertension after several years treatment with diuretics.
