What is Hydrochlorothiazide?

Hydrochlorothiazide, the active ingredient in Idroclorotiazide Aurobindo, is a thiazide diuretic presented as an oral tablet for systemic use. It helps lower blood pressure and reduces fluid retention in patients with hypertension or edema associated with heart, liver, or kidney conditions.

GNH USA supplies Idroclorotiazide Aurobindo as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier, providing reliable bulk shipments to hospitals, pharmacies, and clinics across Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. All batches meet stringent European pharmacopeia standards and are shipped with full documentation.

What is Hydrochlorothiazide used for?

Hydrochlorothiazide is used to manage conditions that involve excess fluid or elevated blood pressure.

- Hypertension: lowers systolic and diastolic blood pressure in patients with primary or secondary hypertension. - Edema associated with congestive heart failure: promotes diuresis to reduce fluid accumulation and improve symptoms. - Edema associated with hepatic cirrhosis: facilitates removal of ascitic fluid and peripheral edema. - Edema associated with renal disease: enhances urinary excretion to alleviate fluid overload.

What are the side effects of Hydrochlorothiazide?

Hydrochlorothiazide may cause a range of adverse reactions, varying from mild to serious.

Common Side Effects: - Electrolyte imbalance (low potassium, sodium, magnesium) - Increased urination - Dizziness or light‑headedness - Headache - Fatigue - Nausea

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis, skin rash) - Acute gout attacks - Pancreatitis - Significant drop in blood pressure (hypotension) - Kidney function impairment - Blood dyscrasias (e.g., agranulocytosis)

What precautions apply to Hydrochlorothiazide?

Before prescribing Hydrochlorothiazide, clinicians should evaluate several safety considerations.

- Renal function: assess creatinine clearance and adjust use in severe impairment - Electrolytes: monitor serum potassium and sodium regularly - Gout: use cautiously in patients with a history of gout - Diabetes: may affect glucose control, monitor blood sugar - Pregnancy and lactation: safety not established, weigh risks and benefits - Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and light

What does Hydrochlorothiazide interact with?

Hydrochlorothiazide can interact with several medicines, altering its efficacy or safety profile.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Lithium: increased lithium levels leading to toxicity - NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen, naproxen): may reduce diuretic effect and impair renal function - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: risk of severe potassium loss

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Antidiabetic agents: may enhance hypoglycaemic effect - Corticosteroids: may counteract diuretic action - Digoxin: increased risk of arrhythmia due to electrolyte shifts

Frequently asked questions

What is Idroclorotiazide Aurobindo used for?+
Idroclorotiazide Aurobindo contains hydrochlorothiazide, a thiazide diuretic indicated for the treatment of hypertension and for reducing fluid overload (edema) associated with congestive heart failure, hepatic cirrhosis, or renal disease.
How does hydrochlorothiazide work?+
Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the Na⁺/Cl⁻ symporter in the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney, decreasing reabsorption of sodium and chloride. This promotes increased urinary excretion of these ions together with water, lowering plasma volume and peripheral vascular resistance, which helps control blood pressure and fluid accumulation.
What is the usual dose of Idroclorotiazide Aurobindo?+
The appropriate dose is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s medical condition, response to therapy, and renal function. Dosage adjustments are made according to clinical judgment and patient monitoring.
Is Idroclorotiazide safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for hydrochlorothiazide in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should only be used when the potential benefit justifies any possible risk to the fetus or infant, and the decision should be made by the treating physician.
How do I order Idroclorotiazide Aurobindo from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any required import documentation.
How does Idroclorotiazide compare with other diuretics?+
Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide‑type diuretic, primarily acting on the distal convoluted tubule, whereas loop diuretics such as furosemide act on the ascending limb of the loop of Henle and are generally more potent. Thiazides are often preferred for long‑term hypertension management due to their favorable duration of action and lower risk of ototoxicity.
How should Idroclorotiazide be stored and handled?+
Store the product at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in the original packaging to protect it from moisture and light. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children.
How is Idroclorotiazide administered?+
The medication is taken orally, usually with a full glass of water. It can be taken with or without food, but patients should follow the specific instructions provided by their prescriber.
What are the most serious risks associated with Idroclorotiazide?+
Serious adverse effects include severe electrolyte disturbances (especially low potassium), acute gout attacks, hypersensitivity reactions such as anaphylaxis, significant hypotension, and rare blood disorders like agranulocytosis. Prompt medical attention is required if any of these occur.
Who should not use Idroclorotiazide?+
Hydrochlorothiazide is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to the drug, anuria, or severe renal impairment. Caution is also advised for individuals with uncontrolled diabetes, gout, or those taking medications that may interact significantly, such as lithium or certain NSAIDs.
