Chlorthalidone
Chlorthalidone is a diuretic used for high blood pressure and fluid retention. It acts through the kidneys to increase removal of salt and water into the urine. The four attached records are all tablets: one contains chlorthalidone alone, while three pair it with a blood-pressure ingredient from another medicine class.
Edarbyclor
Hypertension
40mg + 12.5mg
Indicated to address severe hypertension to relieve arterial tension and manage systemic fluid balance.
Key points
- Chlorthalidone is a diuretic used in hypertension and oedema care.
- Its kidney action increases salt and water removal.
- Hygroton is the only attached single-ingredient record.
- Official label material identifies chlorthalidone in tablet form.
Hygroton as the single-ingredient entry
Hygroton contains chlorthalidone alone and is catalogued at 6.25 mg and 12.5 mg. It connects with hypertension and oedema in the heart and blood pressure category.
Government medicine information explains the ingredient’s diuretic role through its effect on kidney removal of salt and water. That same action is why the information also discusses fluid balance, electrolytes and laboratory monitoring.
Three combinations, three partner ingredients
Combipres adds clonidine. Tenoretic adds atenolol. Edarbyclor adds azilsartan medoxomil. Each partner gives its record a composition distinct from Hygroton and from the other two combinations.
The official Thalitone label is useful for ingredient identity and clinical background even though Thalitone is not one of the four attached catalogue names. It documents chlorthalidone as a tablet medicine for hypertension and provides detailed fluid and electrolyte precautions.
