PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Benzthiazide is 7-Sulfamoyl-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxide in which the hydrogen at position 6 is substituted by chlorine and that at position 3 is substituted by a benzylsulfanylmethyl group. A diuretic, it is used to treat hypertension and edema. It has a role as a diuretic and an antihypertensive agent. It is a benzothiadiazine and a sulfonamide.
