Chlorthalidone (pronounced: (klor thal' i done) MedMaster) is a medication used for treating hypertension in humans. Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic. Compared to hydrochlorothiazide, chlorthalidone is more potent and has a longer duration of action.[1][2] This may[3] or may not[4] result in improved outcomes.

Effectiveness

Chlorthalidone reduced cardiovascular disease in the ALLHAT randomized controlled trial and was more effective than amlodipine and lisinopril.[5]

Regarding chlorthalidone versus hydrochlorothiazide:

Regarding chlorthalidone versus calcium channel blockers:

  • "Thiazide-type diuretics are superior in preventing 1 or more major forms of CVD and are less expensive" according to a randomized controlled trial that compared to . [5]
  • "Similar antihypertensive efficacies, tolerabilities and cardiovascular event rates were observed with verapamil and with chlorthalidone" according to an unblinded randomized controlled trial[7]
  • "In elderly patients with isolated systolic hypertension, administration of lacidipine or chlorthalidone markedly reduced systolic blood pressure with no difference in the incidence of cardiovascular events and total mortality." according to an unblinded randomized controlled trial. [8]

Indications

United States

Indications according to the United States of America Food and Drug Administration are:[9]

  • Diuretics such as chlorthalidone are indicated in the management of hypertension either as the sole therapeutic agent or to enhance the effect of other antihypertensive drugs in the more severe forms of hypertension.
  • Chlorthalidone is indicated as adjunctive therapy in edema associated with congestive heart failure, hepatic cirrhosis, and corticosteroid and estrogen therapy.
  • Chlorthalidone has also been found useful in edema due to various forms of renal dysfunction, such as nephrotic syndrome, acute glomerulonephritis, and chronic renal failure.
