Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic, an inhibitor of the Na+-Cl- cotransporter.
Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic, an inhibitor of the Na+-Cl- cotransporter. Chlorthalidone inhibits sodium ion transport across the renal tubular epithelium increasing the delivery of sodium to the distal renal tubule and indirectly increasing potassium excretion via the sodium-potassium exchange mechanism. Chlorthalidone also promotes Ca++ reabsorption by an unknown mechanism. Several recent comparison studies inidcate that chlorthalidone may be a better drug in preventing cardiovascular events than hydrochlorothiazide.

Indirect evidence suggests that chlorthalidone may be more effective than hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), but direct comparisons are lacking. Using national Veterans Administrative pharmacy data from 2003 to 2008, the authors performed a retrospective cohort study examining the effectiveness of chlorthalidone and

This study compared the efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combinations (FDCs) of the angiotensin II receptor blocker azilsartan medoxomil (AZL-M) and the thiazide-like diuretic chlorthalidone (CLD) with the individual monotherapies in a double-blind factorial study. A total of 1714 patients

Chlorthalidone has proven efficacy to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, yet it is infrequently used in practice. This study provides a direct comparison of chlorthalidone with hydrochlorothiazide, each combined with the angiotensin receptor blocker azilsartan medoxomil, on blood pressure reduction
