This drug is used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood
pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. This
medication is a combination of two "water pills" (diuretics):
triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide. This combination is used by people
who have developed or are at risk for having low potassium levels on
hydrochlorothiazide. It causes you to make more urine, which helps your
body get rid of extra salt and water.
