Key points
- Blood-pressure benefit develops with regular treatment; extra tablets are not a safe response to a high reading.
- Low sodium or potassium can cause weakness, confusion, cramps or abnormal heart rhythm.
- Vomiting, diarrhoea, poor fluid intake or hot weather can increase dehydration and kidney risk.
Select a listed product and pack to order online. Ask your doctor or pharmacist whether it suits you and what laboratory monitoring it needs.
How it works
Chlorthalidone increases sodium and water excretion by the kidneys and has a prolonged blood-pressure effect.
Important safety checks
Review kidney or liver disease, gout, diabetes, low sodium or potassium, pregnancy and interacting medicines such as lithium, NSAIDs, digoxin or other blood-pressure treatments. Blood pressure, kidney function and electrolytes may need monitoring.
When to seek urgent care
Seek urgent help for fainting, severe confusion, a seizure, marked weakness, a new irregular heartbeat, very little urine, severe eye pain or facial swelling and breathing difficulty.
