All angiotensin II antagonists significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. The drug recommended for the treatment of hypertension in patients with diabetes is Telmisartan. It is the most selective antagonist of the angiotensin II AT1 receptor of all known sartans. In addition to its hypotensive effect, this drug has beneficial metabolic effects in terms of its effect on lipid profile, glycemic values and insulin resistance, and also reduces the risk of complications in the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems and improves kidney function.
