Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic, a water pill, which prevents body from absorbing too much salt and causing fluid retention. It lowers blood pressure by reducing the amount of water in the body by boosting urine flow. Hydrochlorothiazide is used to treat edema. Edema (extra fluid stored in body tissues) can be caused by a variety of medical conditions, including heart, kidney, and liver disease. High blood pressure is treated with hydrochlorothiazide alone or in combination with other drugs. The workload on the heart and arteries is increased by high blood pressure. It is possible that the heart and arteries may not work properly if it lasts for a long time. This can cause damage to the blood vessels of the brain, heart, and kidney, leading to stroke, heart failure, and kidney failure. Low blood pressure can help reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. Hydrochlorothiazide is used to treat diabetes insipidus and to prevent kidney stones in those who have high calcium levels in their blood.
