One of the complications that arises is hypertension. Type 2 DM patients with hypertension may have a higher risk of complications than type 2 DM patients without hypertension. Aim: To prove the relationship between Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) levels and lipid profile levels in type 2 DM patients with hypertension. Methods: This research is an analytical observational study using a cross-sectional approach. This study used secondary data from type 2 DM patients with hypertension medical records at Diponegoro National Hospital, with as many as 38 respondents from 2021 to 2023. Results: Spearman Rank’s analysis showed that in type 2 DM patients with hypertension, the correlation between GDP levels and total cholesterol levels was p = 0.073 and r = 0.295, HDL cholesterol p = 0.232 and r = 0.199, LDL cholesterol p=0.048 and r=0.323, and triglyceride p=0.371 and r=0.149. Conclusion: There was a significant positive correlation between GDP levels and LDL cholesterol levels in type 2 DM patients with hypertension. ]]>
