Prevention of diabetic nephropathy is crucial. The basis for the prevention of diabetic nephropathy is the treatment of its known risk factors including hypertension, hyperglycemia, smoking, and dyslipidemia.
The goal of treatment is to prevent diabetic kidney disease from progressing to total kidney failure.
