thiazide
Thiazide is a type of diuretic (water pill) that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention. It is often used to treat high blood pressure and edema (fluid retention) caused by various conditions, including heart disease. It works by causing the kidneys to excrete more sodium and water, reducing the volume of fluid flowing through the blood vessels and thus lowering blood pressure.
