Chlorthalidone

Generic name: Chlorthalidone
Brand names: Thalitone

Why is Chlorthalidone prescribed?

Chlorthalidone is a diuretic (water pill) used to treat high blood pressure and fluid retention associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver (a disease of the liver caused by damage to its cells), corticosteroid and estrogen therapy, and kidney disease. When used for high blood pressure, Chlorthalidone may be used alone or in combination with other high blood pressure medications. Diuretics help your body produce and eliminate more urine, which helps lower blood pressure.

Most important fact about Chlorthalidone

If you have high blood pressure, you must take Chlorthalidone regularly for it to be effective. Since blood pressure declines gradually, it may be several weeks before you get the full benefit of Chlorthalidone; and you must continue taking it even if you are feeling well. Chlorthalidone does not cure high blood pressure; it merely keeps it under control.

How should you take Chlorthalidone?

Diuretics such as Chlorthalidone increase urination; therefore Chlorthalidone should be taken in the morning.

Do not interchange generic chlorthalidone with Chlorthalidone without consulting your doctor or pharmacist.

Chlorthalidone may be taken with food. Take it exactly as prescribed.

--If you miss a dose...

Take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to your regular schedule. Do not take 2 doses at the same time.

--Storage instructions...

Store at room temperature.

What side effects may occur?

Side effects cannot be anticipated. If any side effects develop or change in intensity, tell your doctor immediately. Only your doctor can determine whether it is safe to continue taking Chlorthalidone.

More common side effects may include:
Allergic reaction, anemia, changes in blood sugar, change in potassium levels (causing such symptoms as dry mouth, excessive thirst, weak or irregular heartbeat, and muscle pain or cramps), constipation, cramping, diarrhea, dizziness, dizziness upon standing up, flaky skin, headache, hives, impotence, inflammation of a lymph or blood vessel, inflammation of the pancreas, itching, loss of appetite, low blood pressure, muscle spasms, nausea, rash, restlessness, sensitivity to light, stomach irritation, tingling or pins and needles, vision changes, vomiting, weakness, yellow eyes and skin

Why should Chlorthalidone not be prescribed?

If you are unable to urinate or if you have ever had an allergic reaction to or are sensitive to chlorthalidone or other sulfa drugs, do not take Chlorthalidone.

Special warnings about Chlorthalidone

Diuretics can cause your body to lose too much potassium. Signs of an excessively low potassium level include muscle weakness and rapid or irregular heartbeat. To boost your potassium level, your doctor may recommend eating potassium-rich foods or taking a potassium supplement.

Tell your doctor if you have ever had an allergic reaction to other diuretics or if you have asthma, kidney or liver disease, gout, or lupus.

If you have a history of bronchial asthma, you are more likely to have an allergic reaction to Chlorthalidone.

Be careful in hot weather not to become dehydrated. Contact your doctor if you experience excessive thirst, tiredness, restlessness, drowsiness, muscle pains or cramps, nausea, vomiting, or increased heart rate or pulse.

This medication may aggravate lupus erythematosus, a disease of the connective tissue.

Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight.
