What's the most effective way to treat diabetic kidney disease?

Diabetes control: The best way to treat all the complications of diabetes is to control the diabetes as closely as possible. You should also be seen by a kidney specialist (nephrologist) to learn about diet and medication for that specific problem.

A1c, BP, take meds: In short, keep your A1c close to 6.5%, your blood pressure under 130/80, and make sure you are taking a blood pressure medication in the ace inhibitor or arb class.
