Chlorthalidone

Uses

Chlorthalidone is used for hypertension (high blood pressure), heart failure, kidney stones, and edema. It treats edema (fluid overload) associated with heart, liver, kidney, or lung disease.

How it Works

How Chlorthalidone works Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that lowers blood pressure by eliminating excess water and specific electrolytes from the body. Over time, it also relaxes blood vessels and enhances blood flow.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Chlorthalidone include headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, vertigo, and orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing).

Expert Advice

  • Take Chlorthalidone in the morning with breakfast to avoid nocturia (getting up at night to urinate).
  • It may cause dizziness; avoid driving and activities requiring attention until you understand how it affects you.
  • Avoid alcohol intake while taking Chlorthalidone, as it may exacerbate dizziness.
  • Be aware that it may lead to a sudden drop in sodium levels in the blood; therefore, avoid a low sodium diet while on this medication.
  • Monitor your blood pressure after starting Chlorthalidone and notify your doctor if it does not decrease.
  • Inform your doctor if you experience persistent dizziness, tiredness, or muscle weakness.
  • Notify your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
  • Chlorthalidone helps to lower blood pressure and remove excess water from the body.
  • You may be required to undergo regular blood tests to monitor kidney function.
