[Cardiologic and diabetologic aspects of therapy with angiotensin receptor blocking agents].
Authors based on studies fullfiling the principles of evidence based medicine review the efficiency and benefits of angiotensin receptor blocking agents in congestive heart failure and hypertension. Special attention is focused on their application in diabetes mellitus. The data support efficacy, good tolerability, beneficial side effect profile as well as cardio- and renoprotective properties of these drugs.
