Are there any medicines to treat the complication of diabetes?

Though not the primary purpose of this booklet, a short description of some of the approaches available and in development for diabetic complications are described later. These include medicines that reduce high blood pressure and have a protective effect towards the kidneys, and medicines that lower blood cholesterol and help reduce weight and the risk of heart disease and/ or stroke. Other novel agents are directed towards preventing or treating nerve damage, and treating foot ulcers – including the development of synthetic skin to speed healing.
