Why is Hygroton prescribed?

Hygroton (Chlorthalidone) is used to treat high blood pressure and may also be prescribed to reduce swelling associated with heart, kidney, or liver conditions.

What does it do?

Hygroton (Chlorthalidone) works by promoting urination, helping the kidneys remove electrolytes like sodium (salt) and water from the body.

How should I take it?

Take this medication by mouth at the same time each day, with food. Continue taking it unless your healthcare provider tells you to stop.

Consult your healthcare team about the use of this medication in children, as special care may be required.

What if I missed a dose?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and take only the scheduled dose. Do not take two doses at once.

What are the special precautions before taking Hygroton?

You should not take Chlorthalidone if you:

• Are unable to urinate
• Are allergic to sulfa drugs

Inform your doctor if you have ever had:

• High cholesterol or triglycerides

Taking Chlorthalidone during pregnancy may cause side effects in the newborn, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), or electrolyte imbalances.
