Amiloride+Hydrochlorothiazide
How Amiloride+Hydrochlorothiazide works
This is a combination of two diuretics: Amiloride and hydrochlorothiazide which reduce oedema (swelling). They work by removing extra water and certain electrolytes from the body through urine. Over time, hydrochlorothiazide also relaxes blood vessels, but causes potassium loss. Amiloride is added as it conserves potassium, thereby balancing its levels in the body.
