Overview
Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic drug used to treat high blood pressure, swelling, diabetes insipidus, and renal tubular acidosis. It is effective in most patients with high blood pressure and is considered a preferred initial treatment. It is also used to prevent calcium-based kidney stones.
Chlorthalidone is taken by mouth, with effects generally beginning within three hours and lasting up to three days. Long-term treatment with chlorthalidone is more effective than hydrochlorothiazide for preventing heart attack or stroke.
Uses
Chlorthalidone is used for:
- Treating high blood pressure
- Reducing swelling (edema)
- Preventing calcium-based kidney stones
- Treating left ventricular hypertrophy
- Managing diabetes insipidus
- Preventing bone fractures
- Treating Ménière's disease
Regulatory
Chlorthalidone is approved for use by prescription only in the UK and the US. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines and is available as a generic medication.
Monitoring
Regular monitoring of blood pressure, electrolyte levels, and kidney function is recommended during chlorthalidone treatment. Monitoring helps in managing potential side effects and ensuring the effectiveness of the treatment.
Health Impact
Human toxicity
Common adverse effects include low blood potassium, low blood sodium, high blood sugar, dizziness, and erectile dysfunction. Other adverse effects may include gout, low blood magnesium, high blood calcium, allergic reactions, and low blood pressure. The risk of adverse effects is higher in persons with diabetes mellitus and those with low dietary magnesium intake.
Environmental Impact
Effects on wildlife
Chlorthalidone can potentially impact aquatic life if it enters water bodies through pharmaceutical waste. Proper disposal and environmental monitoring are essential to mitigate these effects.
Safety Measures
Safety measures include regular monitoring of electrolyte levels, kidney function, and blood pressure. Patients should be educated on the importance of adhering to prescribed dosages and reporting any adverse effects to their healthcare provider.
Regulation
Chlorthalidone is regulated as a prescription-only medication in many countries. It is banned in some sports due to its diuretic properties, which can be used to reduce body weight or mask the use of performance-enhancing drugs.
