Abstract

HOUSSAY, Solange et al. ¿Cómo individualizar el tratamiento de la hipertensión arterial en las personas con diabetes mellitus tipo 2?. Rev. Soc. Argent. Diabetes [online]. 2022, vol.56, suppl.1, pp.48-51. ISSN 0325-5247.

In patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HP), blood pressure (BP) goals should be individualized considering cardiovascular risk, potential adverse effects of antihypertensive medications, cost, and patient preferences. In people with DM and high cardiovascular risk, a BP target <130/80 mmHg would be appropriate if it can be achieved safely. If cardiovascular risk is low, treat hypertension with a target <140/90 mmHg. In pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and preexisting hypertension, a BP target of 110-135/85 mmHg is suggested to reduce the risk of eclampsia and minimize intrauterine growth restriction.

Keywords : diabetes; arterial hypertension.
