Comparison of thiazide‐like diuretics versus thiazide‐type diuretics: a meta‐analysis
Thiazide diuretics are widely used for the management of hypertension. In recent years, it has been actively debated that there is interchangeability of thiazide-type diuretics hydrochlorothiazide and thiazide-like diuretics including indapamide and chlorthalidone for the treatment of hypertension. With the purpose of seeking out the best thiazide diuretic for clinicians, we summarized the exis...

متن کاملEffects of thiazide-type and thiazide-like diuretics on cardiovascular events and mortality: systematic review and meta-analysis.
Thiazide diuretics are recommended as first-line therapy for hypertension and are among the most commonly prescribed drugs worldwide. According to their molecular structure, thiazide diuretics can be divided in thiazide-type (TT) and thiazide-like (TL) diuretics. TL diuretics have a longer elimination half-life compared with TT diuretics and have been shown to exert additional pharmacological e...
متن کاملThiazide diuretics and fractures: can meta-analysis help?
Published observational estimates of the effect of thiazide diuretics on osteoporotic fracture risk vary from a 70% reduction to a 60% increase but there have been no randomized controlled trials. The aims of this study were to use the technique of meta-analysis to attempt to resolve this conflict and to explore whether duration and/or dose of therapy has an effect on osteoporotic fracture risk...
