To answer this I would need to know what diabetes medicines & what BP meds you are taking. For most of the meds, it doesn't matter. I take insulin when I eat and a long acting insulin at bedtime. I take my BP meds also at bedtime when I brush my teeth. It seems to work well that way. I am taking 3 BP meds, an ARB, a beta blocker & a calcium blocker & there seems to be no interaction. My A1c is 5.8% & my BP at last Dr. visit was 130/60 so it seems to work to take the bedtime insulin & the BP meds together. Some oral agents may be a problem with BP meds but I can't advise you further without knowledge of what you are taking.
