Maxzide-25 MG

Generic name: Hydrochlorothiazide, Triamterene
Brand names: Maxzide-25 MG, Maxzide, Dyazide

Why is Maxzide-25 MG prescribed?

Maxzide-25 MG is a combination of diuretic drugs used in the treatment of high blood pressure and other conditions that require the elimination of excess fluid from the body. When used for high blood pressure, Maxzide-25 MG can be taken alone or with other high blood pressure medications. Diuretics help your body produce and eliminate more urine, which helps lower blood pressure. Triamterene, one of the ingredients of Maxzide-25 MG, helps to minimize the potassium loss that can be caused by the other component, hydrochlorothiazide. Maxzide and Maxzide-25 MG contain the same combination of ingredients.
