DYAZIDE key facts
What is DYAZIDE?
DYAZIDE is the brand name for triamterene/hydrochlorothiazide and is available as an oral capsule.
What dosages is DYAZIDE available in?
DYAZIDE contains triamterene/hydrochlorothiazide and is available as a 37.5 mg/25 mg or 50 mg/25 mg oral capsule.
What is DYAZIDE used for?
DYAZIDE is a combination diuretic (water pill) and is used to treat high blood pressure, and swelling.
How does DYAZIDE work?
DYAZIDE is a combination medication. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill) that makes you urinate more. It works in your kidneys to remove extra water and certain electrolytes (like sodium and potassium), which helps lower your blood pressure and lessen swelling throughout your body. Triamterene is a potassium-sparing diuretic (water pill). It also works in your kidneys to remove extra water and electrolytes, but it doesn’t remove potassium from your body. This helps lower your blood pressure and swelling while preventing your blood potassium levels from dropping low.
How do I take DYAZIDE?
DYAZIDE is typically taken by mouth once daily around the same time each day,
Is it safe for me to take DYAZIDE?
DYAZIDE is a safe and effective treatment when used for FDA licensed indications. However, like all medications, they may give you unwanted side effects. You should always discuss potential side effects with your physician to ensure the medication is suitable and right for you. You should not use this medication if you are receiving other potassium-sparing agents such as spironolactone, amiloride, or other formulations containing triamterene or if you have anuria, acute and chronic renal insufficiency or significant renal impairment.

Effects of other drugs, drug classes and over-the-counter products on DYAZIDE
The following medications may interact with DYAZIDE:
- Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Inhibitors – Potassium-sparing agents should be used with caution in conjunction with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors due to an increased risk of hyperkalemia
- Oral Hypoglycemic Drugs – Concurrent use with chlorpropamide may increase the risk of severe hyponatremia
- Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs – A possible interaction resulting in acute renal failure has been reported in a few patients on DYAZIDE when treated with indomethacin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent. Caution is advised in administering nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents with DYAZIDE
- Lithium – Lithium generally should not be given with diuretics because they reduce its renal clearance and increase the risk of lithium toxicity

If you have Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage and none of the DYAZIDE savings options are applicable or affordable for me, what can you do?
If you are insured with Medicare and the DYAZIDE drug savings options are not applicable to you and still remain unaffordable, then you can check Medicaid eligibility in your state by following the instructions at HealthCare.gov.
The government site is easy to use and after you have selected your state, it will navigate you to the appropriate contact point to make the application. State Medicaid programs may cover the full cost of your medication.
People who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid are called ‘dual eligibles’.
If you are denied Medicaid for DYAZIDE, and you are still unable to afford your copay or co-insurance element (for example if you are in the coverage gap or Donut Hole) then you may be eligible for a federal support program like Low Income Subsidy. To be eligible for Low Income Subsidy, you need to be a resident in one of the 50 States or the District of Columbia. You can check eligibility online at SSA Medicare D Extra Help. You can also call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).
