Chlorthalidone is a nonthiazide diuretic that inhibits the sodium/chloride cotransporter in the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney, which prevents reabsorption of sodium and chloride leading to a reduction in plasma volume and cardiac output.{26627} It also effectively inhibits the activity of most platelet carbonic anhydrase isozymes (IC50s = 2.8 nM - 11 µM), which has been attributed to the sustained vasodilator capability of this compound.{26626} Chlorthalidone has been used independently or in combination with other antihypertensive agents to lower arterial blood pressure, and also as an adjuvant to address edema caused by cardiac or renal disorders.{26628}
