Can Hydrochlorothiazide make you lose weight

Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic medication used to treat high blood pressure and fluid retention. While some people may experience weight loss as a side effect of taking hydrochlorothiazide due to the loss of excess fluid, it is not typically prescribed for weight loss purposes.

It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting or changing any medication regimen, as weight loss can have serious health implications and should be monitored by a medical professional.
