Summary
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is usually associated with high blood pressure, which is a risk
factor for kidney disease. Aggressive blood pressure reduction is an important strategy to
protect the kidney and reduce urinary protein which develops with kidney disease. This study
will evaluate the effects of amlodipine/benazepril in reducing blood pressure and urinary
protein in hypertensive subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
