Brief Summary

**Introduction:**

Hypertension is the commenest cardiovascular disease and one of the cause of mortality and morbidity in human population. among many risk factors systemic hypertension is present in more than 50% of Diabetes mellitus patients and contributes significantly to micro and macrovascular disease in Diabetes mellitus,among many risk factor for cardiovascular disease hypertension is most prevalent one and it can be diagnosed and treated easily by medication and life style modification. This study aimed to find out the antihypertensive benifit, cardiac and renal outcome of ARB and calcium channel blockers in patients with type 2 DM with newly diagnosed hypertension of age more than 40 years.

**Materials and methodology**:

sample size of 64 patients in 2 groups(32/group) will be randomly assigned through simple randomization to treat with Azilsartan(40mg) and Cilnidipine(5-10mg) for a period of 3 months. Baseline parameters like FBS,PPBS,hsCRP,HBA1C,BP,BMI,eGFR, Lipid profile will be done before initiation of treatment, and same parameters will be done after 3 months of the study period. This study is focused to find out both Azilsartan and Cilnidipine potential to alter baseline BP, hsCRP, eGFR outcome.

**Result**:

Data collection will be statistically analyzed by paired and unpaired t TEST.

**Conclusion**:

This study may provide new insight to the clinical use of Calcium channel blocker Cilnidipine in diabetic hypertensive patients

**IHEC approval**:

This study has been approved by the IHEC of PSG Institute of Medical Sciences and Research(Affliated to TN MGR Medical University), coimbatore-Proposal number.18/346,dated 19/02/2019
