What is Triamterene-HCTZ?

Triamterene-HCTZ is a combination prescription drug that reduces water in the body. It is prescribed to patients with edema (fluid retention) or high blood pressure (hypertension). Both active ingredients are diuretics (“water pills”) that flush the body of water and salt. As the amount of liquid in the bloodstream or tissues decreases, blood pressure and swelling go down.

Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic. It works by reducing the kidney's ability to reabsorb water or salt from the urine. Thiazide diuretics often the first type of diuretic prescribed to treat edema or high blood pressure.

Triamterene belongs to a class of diuretics called potassium-sparing diuretics. Triamterene also blocks the kidney's ability to reabsorb water and salt (sodium), but it works on a specific part of the kidney so that the kidney can still reabsorb potassium back into the bloodstream. This prevents potassium deficiency, a potentially health-threatening condition. Potassium is vital to the proper functioning of nerves and the heart.
