Fetal Risk Summary

Chlorthalidone is structurally related to the thiazide diuretics (see Chlorothiazide). In general, diuretics are not recommended for the treatment of pregnancy-induced hypertension because of the maternal hypovolemia characteristic of this disease.

Reproduction studies in rats and rabbits at doses up to 420 times the human dose have observed no evidence of fetal harm (1).

[*Risk Factor D if used in pregnancy-induced hypertension.]

    If taking chlorthalidone and atenolol, should they always be taken together?
    PJ
    Yes and No.... Atenolol can be taken alone.

    It is also used in combination with other medications

    Your provider gave you that combination for a reason based on medical concerns they have about you.

    Atenolol and chlorthalidone are prescription medications used to treat heart problems.

    Atenolol is a beta-blocker that acts to normalize the heartbeat to help lower blood pressure.

    Atenolol is also used to treat angina by regulating the heartbeat.

    Chlorthalidone helps to reduce water retention.

    Atenolol and chlorthalidone are used together to help keep blood pressure down.
