Meher Bikash

Background: Based on various preclinical studies, it is anticipated that azilsartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker, will increase insulin sensitivity in addition to its antihypertensive effect. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of azilsartan compared to telmisartan on insulin sensitivity in patients of hypertension coexisted with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: This study was a prospective, randomized, active controlled, open...
