Zestoretic (Hydrochlorothiazide And Lisinopril)

General information

Zestoretic is a combination product containing 2 medications: lisinopril and hydrochlorothiazide. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor and works by relaxing blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention. This product is used when one drug is not controlling your blood pressure. This medication may also be used to treat heart failure and to help protect the kidneys from damage due to diabetes.

Directions

Take Zestoretic exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The recommended dosage for people with high blood pressure (hypertension) will typically start at 10 mg/12.5 mg or 20 mg/12.5 mg once a day. This medication can be taken with or without food. Swallow the tablet with water. Lower doses may be used for people who take other medications that lower blood pressure or for people who have kidney disease.
