title: [Hypertensive management of the diabetic patients].
abstract: Cardiovascular disease risk of hypertensive patients with diabetes mellitus is high. Therefore, more stringent blood pressure control has been needed for antihypertensive treatment by blockades of renin angiotensin system. However, many patients with diabetes and hypertension already have vascular lesions. When starting the antihypertensive medication in these patients, it is necessary to consider the existence of cerebrovascular disorder, coronary artery disease, and renal artery stenosis.
