A: Hydrochlorothiazide, also known as HCTZ, is a diuretic used for blood pressure and edema or swelling. HCTZ can cause an increase in urination and also deplete potassium out of the body. It is important for a physician to regularly perform blood tests to check the potassium levels.
There is a wide variety of diuretics doctors may prescribe to patients, though HCTZ is the only diuretic that is known to lower blood pressure and flush out excessive body fluids at the same time. The heart condition will get worse if blood pressure will not be controlled.
