I don't know if it will raise your blood sugar, but I was taking 25 mg atenolol and when I was diagnosed with diabetes, my doctor put me on Altace instead because it gives better protection for the kidneys. The ACE inhibitor did lower my blood pressure quite a bit to 115/68. This is important for diabetics and the doctor said the medical community is thinking that a systolic pressure of 110 is the goal.
