    Introduction: The coexistence of dyslipidemia and hypertension in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) presents a significant challenge in modern medicine. These concurrent conditions considerably increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, underscoring the need for an integrated approach in their management. Materials and Methods: A literature review article was conducted, examining recent studies and relevant literature in repositories such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The focus was on studies published between 2010 and 2023, prioritizing those addressing the clinical management and therapeutic implications of dyslipidemia and hypertension in patients with Type 2 DM. Results: Dyslipidemia and hypertension are common risk factors in individuals with Type 2 DM, exacerbating the risk of cardiovascular pathologies. Insulin resistance and chronic inflammation were identified as key factors contributing to these complications. The importance of an integrated treatment approach that includes lifestyle modifications, glycemic control, and specific pharmacological therapies for each condition was emphasized. Conclusions: Effective management of dyslipidemias and hypertension in patients with Type 2 DM requires a holistic approach. Lifestyle modifications, along with pharmacological therapy, are fundamental in controlling these risk factors. It is essential to personalize the treatment for each patient, considering their clinical profile and cardiovascular risk.
