The effects of calcium channel antagonists on urinary protein excretion and renal hemodynamics vary (3, 4). The renal hemodynamic effects of diltiazem, however, have been shown to be similar to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (5, 6). We did a prospective crossover trial with diltiazem or lisinopril in eight diabetic, hypertensive patients with nephrotic-range proteinuria to compare the renal effects of these agents.Patients and MethodsEight noninsulin-dependent diabetic patients (three men...References1.
