What Is Maxzide Used For?
Maxzide is prescribed for the treatment of fluid retention (edema) and high blood pressure. Maxzide contains two
diuretics (water pills). One is hydrochlorothiazide that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt, which otherwise can result in fluid retention. Another ingredient is Triamterene, which is a potassium-sparing diuretic that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt and keeps your potassium levels from getting too low. It is generally given to those patients who develop low potassium levels on hydrochlorothiazide alone and in whom low potassium levels cannot be risked.
What Are The Possible Side Effects Of Maxzide?
Most common side effects of treatment with Maxzide include stomach pain, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, dizziness, and headache. Some other serious side effects include blurred vision, dry mouth, eye pain, seeing halos around light, light-headedness, fast, slow or uneven heartbeat, dark urine, jaundice, fever, sore throat, and headache with a severe blistering, peeling and red skin rash, high or low potassium levels, electrolyte imbalance, kidney problems, and lupus-like syndrome. These are not all the possible side effects of Maxzide. Contact your healthcare professional in case of any unexpected effect.
Are there any Precautions and Drug interactions for Maxzide?
Do not use potassium supplements, salt substitutes, or low-sodium milk while taking Maxzide unless otherwise told by your doctor. Also, avoid a high salt diet since too much salt will cause your body to retain water and can make this medication less effective.

Maxzide may impair your thinking or reactions and can cause dizziness or drowsiness. Be careful while doing anything that requires you to be alert such as driving or operating machinery.
