I take HCTZ 50 mg/day because I have edema in my legs due to poor circulation. It works great for me. My doctor switched me from Lasix because it was too harsh making me have to go about every 20 minutes for a couple of hours. With the HCTZ, which I take in the morning, I go pee pretty much like normal and it works all day long. When my BG is high, I have to go more often.
