These drugs are collectively referred to as Generic Microzide based on the brand name or Generic Hydrochlorothiazide coming from the name of the active substance used in the medications. They all are identical unless in the instruction is indicated that it is a combination drug that contains Hydrochlorothiazide and other anti-hypertensive agent. The medication is a thiazide diuretic used primarily to lower arterial pressure and in some other heart or kidney-related conditions.

When can you use Generic Microzide?

It is a wise decision since generic is absolutely the same but costs much cheaper.

How to use the drug when you order Generic Microzide online?

How to use the drug when you order Generic Microzide online?

You don’t have to worry that the dosages for the brand drug and generics are different because they are not. According to the rules established by the World Health Organization, generics can be called only those drugs which are identical to the original in the route of administration, effect, dosage per pill, and composition. In this medication guide you can find the general recommendations on the therapy with Generic Hydrochlorothiazide but please consult a qualified specialist before you buy Microzide or its generic and start using it.

- For the treatment of hypertension in adults, the starting dosage is 25 mg taken one time a day. If the effect will be insufficient, you can increase the dosage to 50 mg a day taken in one or two intakes. Further increase of the dosage is unreasonable because if the drug doesn’t provide sufficient anti-hypertensive effect, other medications are added to the therapy.
- For the treatment of edema (swelling) in adults associated with water retention in the body, the starting therapeutic dosage is 25 mg a day. The dosage can be increased to 100 mg a day taken in single or divided intakes.
- The treatment of osteoporosis in adults is started with 25 mg daily. The dosage can be increased to 50 mg taken in single or divided intakes.
- For the therapy of diabetes insipidus in adults, the starting dosage is 50 mg once a day. Further the dosage can be raised to 100 mg a day.
- For the treatment of renal tubular acidosis in adults, the starting dosage is 25 mg taken once a day. The dosage can be increased gradually to 100 mg a day taken into two divided intakes.

Though the medication can be used for the treatment of children, the dosages for children for each disease and condition are selected individually and are based on the body weight. It is highly advised to use the drug in children under a doctor’s supervision and only in the dosages chosen by a specialist.

Dosage adjustments of Microzide

Many medications either require the dosage adjustments in kidney or liver function impairment or are contraindicated for people with such conditions. In case with Hydrochlorothiazide, the medication use is unreasonable below the standard dosages. So it is either used in regular dosages in people with creatinine clearance more than 30 ml per minute or not used at all if the clearance rate is slower.

The medication should be cautiously used by people with moderate to severe liver impairment because even mildest changes in the fluid-electrolytes balance can provoke hepatic coma.

Rating: 5 Oct 23 / 2018 USA, Emerald hills
I have taken 25mg of Microzide for 5 years and everything was all right. When my doctor raised it to 50mg (my BP started creeping up), I began to feel headache, pain in my face and teeth. I consulted with the doctor and when the dosage was corrected to 25 mg and Lisinopril was added the side effects were gone.
