Xaqua

Xaqua (Metolazone) is a prescription diuretic medication used to reduce fluid retention and swelling. It belongs to the thiazide-like diuretic class, helping manage conditions like edema and high blood pressure.

Metolazone is commonly used to treat fluid retention (edema) caused by conditions such as heart failure, kidney disorders, or liver disease. It may also be prescribed alongside other medications to manage high blood pressure, helping the kidneys remove excess sodium and water from the body.

Metolazone works by increasing urine output, which helps reduce swelling in the legs, ankles, or abdomen. Users may notice increased urination shortly after taking the medication, which is a normal response to its diuretic action.

Store Xaqua at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If you experience severe dizziness, dehydration, or signs of an allergic reaction, seek medical attention promptly.

Metolazone may interact with other diuretics, blood pressure medications, or lithium. Alcohol and certain supplements (like potassium) may also affect its action. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you are taking.
