Protocol summary

Summary
In this study effect of pentoxifylline, a drug nonselective phosphodiesterase inhibitor, will be measured in patients with diabetes to reduce urinary protein excretion. 32 patients because of proteinuria with type 2 of diabetic chosen or have been admitted from endocrinology and nephrology clinic and divided into two groups. Their questionnaire, including demographic data and etc. will be filled. In Group (1) ACEI and ARB medications used to reduce proteinuria. In the group (2) ACEI and ARB drugs in addition, pentoxifylline. Finally, the results of the two groups in terms of further reduction in proteinuria compared. Patients will be eligible for this prospective study, i.e., they have more than 500 milligrams protein in 24-hour urine excretion and do not have contra-indications of PTX (cerebral hemorrhage, retinal hemorrhage, acute myocardial infarction and hypotension). During the study will not change in glycemic control and treatment plan and if they are taking hypertension medication, drugs will continue unchanged. Baseline patient's blood pressure was measured twice within 10 minutes and fasting blood sugar, U/A, creatinine and urine protein will be tested in 24 hours. Then patients are divided to two groups, half of the patients treat with PTX, ACEI and ARB and half of patients treat with ARB and ACEI for 2 months randomly and Finally clinical and laboratory evaluations will be repeated. Inclusion criteria: patients with type 2 of diabetes; proteinuria greater than 500 mg per 24 hours; people who are treated with ACEI and ARB; patients who do not have contra-indications of PTX. Exclusion criteria: proteinuria less than 500 mg per 24 hours; people who had a history of retinal hemorrhages; who had a history of MI; patients who have contra-indications of PTX; those treated with ACEI and ARB not; people who have hypotension
