Could this medication be the reason for my very dry and extremely itching skin? ## Yes, it could be the reason for it! Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic, so it removes fluid from the body. What dosage are you taking? You may be on too high of a dosage for you, or you may need to make sure you take in some more fluids. I had a similar problem, when they had me on too high of a dosage of diuretics.

What is the name for Lisinopril/Hydrochlorothiaz TAB 12.5 in Mexico? ## Wow! That's a tough one, because it is Mexico and their medication regulation is virtually non-existent. If you are visiting and looking for a needed medication, your best bet is to just ask for via these generic names, Lisinopril and Hydrochlorothiazide, then just specify that you're looking for a combination medication. Learn more Zestoretic details here. In most cases, from what I've found, the Spanish names used there for the generic medications are very similar, so you likely won't have a problem getting help finding it from a druggist. For instance, Ampicillin there is Ampicilina. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you very much, I appreciate this information

What is the half-life of 12.5 mg HCTC (Hydrochlorothiazide)? How long can it be kept for? ## Hello, Buddy! How are you? The half-life is not related to how long a medication can be stored, that refers to how long it takes for it to reach 50% of its maximum level in your body, which allows you to determine when it will be fully eliminated. For example, it takes 5 to 6 times the normal half-life, for a medication to be expelled. Thus one that has a half-life of 5 hours, would be fully expelled anywhere between 25 to 30 hours, give or a take a slight variation from person to person, as defined by the FDA, since we are all different. Shelf life, however, is the maximum time that the manufacturer can guarantee that it will retain its full level of efficacy under average home storage conditio...
