Answer Hi Joe,
Smoking does have specific harmful effects in patients with diabetes and hypertension. From the medications he is taking it is obvious he has both. Such persons are more prone to cardiac disease and smoking can worsen the risk of cardiac disease. I therefore suggest he should refrain from smoking and best would be if he gives it up totally.
