What does HCT mean?

Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) is a medication commonly used in the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and edema (fluid retention). It belongs to a class of drugs known as thiazide diuretics.
HCT works by increasing the excretion of sodium and water in the urine, which helps reduce blood volume and, consequently, lowers blood pressure.
