Hydrochlorothiazide operates by inhibiting the kidneys’ ability to retain sodium, thereby increasing urine production. This not only helps to remove excess fluid from the body but also aids in relaxing the blood vessel walls. The combined effect significantly reduces blood pressure and the workload on the cardiovascular system.

Description

Hydrochlorothiazide, widely recognized under the brand name Microzide among others, is a medication commonly prescribed to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and fluid retention (edema). It belongs to a class of drugs called thiazide diuretics, often referred to as water pills. Hydrochlorothiazide helps reduce fluid retention and lower blood pressure by increasing the amount of urine produced, preventing strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
