Patient's question:
Hello, Doctor: I am 52 years old and have had diabetes for 10 years. May I ask if people with hypertension and diabetes can take Guifuzhihuang Wan? I have two+ protein in my urine and +2 occult blood. I just bought Guifuzhihuang Wan, but it says that people with diabetes and hypertensive nephropathy cannot take it. Why can't they take it? What factors or causes are involved?Doctor's answer:
Aconite increases blood pressure and also affects the heart. Cinnamon and cassia are biased towards heat, and are generally not suitable for diabetics, so attention should be paid, especially diabetic nephropathy is contraindicated.
