Objective:Objective:
To asses the efficacy of hydrochlorothiazide on 24-h blood pressure (BP) control.
Methods:Methods:
Review of all the randomized trials that assessed 24-h BP with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) compared with other antihypertensive drugs.
Meta-analysis of: - 14 studies of HCTZ dose 12.5 to 25 mg,- 5 studies of HCTZ dose 50 mg.
No evidence to support the use of No evidence to support the use of hydrochlorothiazide for 24-h blood pressure hydrochlorothiazide for 24-h blood pressure

The efficacy on 24-h blood pressure control of HCTZ at its usual daily doses, of 12.5 to 25 mg/day is inferior to that of all other antihypertensive drug classes.1
There are no data showing that HCTZ 12.5 - 25 mg/day reduces heart attack and stroke or death.2
The authors of the meta-analysis concluded that:
