Is HYDROCHLOROT AND HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE THE SAME MEDICATION?

Loading...

Hi there! I think these two are the same, diuretics for high blood pressure and water retention. My husband, who is 46 had used Hydrochlorothiazide before. He has never used Hydrochlorot but from what I can remember, these two drugs have the same purpose.

Do you have high blood pressure?

I just hope your not thinking of dieting with these drugs!!! You won’t lose any fat, only water and will last for a few days. Besides these short term results, you could develop heart problems and expose your body to dehydration.

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE BOTH TAKEN THIS DRUG FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS.
IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS , HE'S HAD 2 BAD HEART ATTACKS, DEVELOPED DIABETES AND HAD OPEN HEART QUAD BYPASS THURSDAY.
THE DOCTOR TOLE ME THE DIABETES WAS CAUSED BY THIS DRUG.
SO I WENT OFF IT 10 DAYS AGO AND NOW MY FEET ARE SWOLLEN AND SORE. I ALSO HAVE COPD AND TAKE A LOT OF OTHER MEDS, BUT THIS IS ALL HE TOOK.
ANY INFO IS HELPFUL.
THANX, JUDI COAHRAN

Unless two pharmacies made a mistake, they are the same. Prescription was for "Hydrochlorot". Label from 1st pharmacy said "Hydrochlorot". Changed pharmacies and when I received meds, label from 2nd pharmacy said, "Hydrochlorothiazide". Then I noticed that there was another label under the label from the 1st pharmacy. I peeled it off and the manufacturer's label said, "Hydrochlorothiazide" If they are not the same, it is quite a coincidence.
