  • Title: Symptoms and well-being during antihypertensive treatment with thiazide diuretics.
    Author: Berglund G.
    Journal: Scand J Prim Health Care Suppl; 1990; 1():67-71. PubMed ID: 2100368.
    Abstract:
    Diuretic drugs seem to be well tolerated during long-term antihypertensive treatment. Although they induce severe side effects necessitating withdrawal more often than placebo, the frequency of such withdrawals seem to be equal to that induced by beta-blocker treatment. The subjective tolerability as judged by questionnaires for symptoms and well being scores seems to indicate an over-all small improvement in patient well being. The effects in this respect seem to be similar to those exerted by a selective beta-blocker.
