Diabetes and hypertension at the same time can be treated

Diabetes and hypertension are both usually treatable, but generally difficult to cure.

Diabetes is usually caused by blood glucose levels that are consistently higher than normal, while hypertension is usually caused by pressure on the blood vessel walls that is consistently higher than normal. For diabetes, patients can be treated with hypoglycemic drugs such as glibenclamide, gliclazide, and metformin as prescribed. Hypertension patients can be prescribed to use furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, nifedipine and other antihypertensive drugs for treatment, play a role in lowering blood pressure, so diabetes and high blood pressure at the same time can usually be treated. However, diabetes and high blood pressure are lifelong diseases, need to receive long-term treatment, generally can not be cured.
