The Acute Effect of Atorvastain on Renal Function in Patients With Type II Diabetes

May 14, 2008 updated by: Regional Hospital Holstebro

The Acute Effect of Atorvastatin on Renal Sodium Excretion, Glomerular Filtration Rate, Tubular Function and Vasoactive Hormones in Patients With Non-Insulin Dependent Type II Diabetes.

We wanted to test the hypothesis that acute treatment with atorvastatin changes renal sodium excretion, glomerular filtration rate, tubular function and vasoactive hormones in patients with type II diabetes, not in treatment with insulin.
