Chlorthalid Vs Chlorthalidone

I have been taking Chlorthalid for awhile, but today when I get a refill, it was listed as Chlorthalidone. Are these one and the same - exactly?

Yes, the old label was just abbreviating it.

Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that's used to remove excess fluid from the body to treat high blood pressure, certain cardiac conditions and edema.

Is that what you are supposed to be taking? I just want to make sure.

No they are not exactly always the same they are different label names for a reason don't believe everything from this article, ALWAYS ask YOUR OWN DOCTOR and pharmacist before having them fill your prescription
