A Patient Can Get The Entire Base Optimal Medical Therapy Protocol for $36
Patients with type 2 diabetes and microalbuminuria who used ACE/ARB, hydrochlorothiazide, and a calcium channel blocker for hypertension, a statin for high cholesterol, and metformin for diabetes had one fourth as many heart attacks, one fifth as many strokes, and one sixth as many went on dialysis compared with patients receiving usual care. They can buy the base protocol of lisinopril, amlodipine, hydrochlorothiazide, atorvastatin and metformin for $36 per month. Don’t you think we should scale this highly effective and inexpensive treatment?
