Chlortalidone

A thiazide diuretic that helps your body get rid of excess salt and water.

Metoprolol

A beta-blocker that slows down your heart rate and relaxes your blood vessels.

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure)

May be used in combination to provide better blood pressure control than either drug alone.

Chlortalidone increases urine output, reducing blood volume and pressure. Metoprolol reduces heart rate and the force of contractions, lowering blood pressure. The combination provides a synergistic effect, improving blood pressure control.

Store at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
