There is a positive association between high blood pressure and high blood sugar. When people with elevated blood pressure and high blood sugar take antihypertensive and antidiabetic medications together, their blood glucose and blood pressure often goes down.
In addition, hyperglycemia can lead to increased circulating angiotensin II, which can raise blood pressure; and hypertension can raise blood sugar. Taken together, these results suggest that high blood pressure may cause or contribute to high blood sugar.
