When I was diagnosed with diabetes, my doctor switched me from 25mg of atenolol to 5mg of Altace, an ACE inhibitor. He said it would be better for my kidneys. Glad to hear it is better for my eyes too.

He said it would be better for my kidneys. Glad to hear it is better for my eyes too. 22nd February 2004 My blood pressure with 25mg atenolol was 135/85. When I switched to Altace, it dropped to 115/68. My doctor said that many professionals are beginning to think that 110 systolic may be a better goal. |
