HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE

Hydrochlorothiazide API is a thiazide diuretic active pharmaceutical ingredient widely used in the formulation of medications that manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and edema (fluid retention) associated with heart failure, kidney disorders, and liver cirrhosis. It works by increasing the excretion of sodium and water through the kidneys, effectively reducing blood volume and controlling blood pressure.

Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is one of the most trusted and time-tested diuretic agents used globally, both as a standalone medication and in combination therapy with antihypertensive drugs such as Losartan, Lisinopril, and Valsartan. Its reliable pharmacological profile, excellent safety record, and proven therapeutic benefits make it an essential API in cardiovascular and renal care formulations.

At Bluepill Express, Hydrochlorothiazide API is manufactured under WHO-GMP, ISO, and cGMP certified facilities, ensuring superior quality, high purity, and consistent assay performance. Every batch is validated using HPLC, IR spectroscopy, and impurity profiling to meet USP / BP / IP pharmacopoeial specifications.

Pharmacological Action:

Hydrochlorothiazide acts on the distal convoluted tubules of the kidneys, inhibiting the Na⁺/Cl⁻ co-transporter, leading to increased excretion of sodium, chloride, and water. This diuretic action lowers plasma volume, reduces cardiac output, and stabilizes blood pressure. The drug also enhances calcium reabsorption, making it useful in certain cases of calcium nephrolithiasis (kidney stones).
