Hydrochlorothiazide (25mg)

Introduction

Hydrochlorothiazide (25mg), commonly known as HYCHLORZIDE 25, is a thiazide diuretic used to manage high blood pressure and fluid retention. This article explores its uses, dosage, side effects, price, and benefits.

Uses

Hypertension Management

Hydrochlorothiazide is widely prescribed for hypertension. By reducing the volume of fluid in the bloodstream, it helps lower blood pressure, thereby decreasing the risk of cardiovascular events like strokes and heart attacks.

Edema Treatment

This medication is also effective in treating edema associated with conditions such as heart failure, liver cirrhosis, and kidney disorders. It promotes the removal of excess fluid from the body, reducing swelling and discomfort.

Prevention of Kidney Stones

Hydrochlorothiazide can help prevent the formation of kidney stones in individuals with hypercalciuria (high calcium levels in urine).

Dosage

Standard Dosage

• Adults: For hypertension, the typical dose is 25mg once daily. For edema, the dosage may range from 25mg to 100mg daily, taken either as a single dose or divided into multiple doses.
• Children: The dosage for children should be determined by a healthcare provider based on the child's weight and specific condition.

Administration Instructions

• Take the tablet with or without food.
• It is best to take it in the morning to prevent nighttime urination.

Handling Missed Doses

• Never take two doses at once to make up for a missing one.
