CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Bendroflumethiazide is indicated for:
Cases where the reduction of fluid retention by diuresis is required;
oedema of
cardiac, renal or hepatic origin and iatrogenic oedema.
Bendroflumethiazide produces a moderate but usefully prolonged fall of
blood
pressure in hypertensive patients. It may be used as the sole
antihypertensive agent or
as an adjunct to other drugs whose action it potentiates. In
non-oedematous patients,
there may be little noticeable diuretic effect.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
It is recommended that the tablets should be taken in the morning to
avoid nocturia.
_Adults and children aged 12 years and over: _
_ _
Oedema: 5-10mg daily in the morning initially. Maintenance: usually
2.5mg-5mg on
only two or three days in the week. A single dose may be sufficient.
Essential Hypertension: 2.5mg in the morning. Doses above 2.5mg are
rarely
necessary. Bendroflumethiazide is used concurrently with other
specific hypotensive
agents, the dosage of such agents should be reduced and then adjusted
as necessary.
Pre-menstrual syndrome: 2.5mg each morning for seven days before the
period is
due.
_Elderly_
_ _
Particular caution is needed in the elderly because of their
susceptibility to electrolyte
imbalance. Lower initial doses should be used and electrolyte balance
and renal
function should be carefully monitored.

Oedema: Up to 400µg per kg body weight daily initially, reducing to
50-100µg per kg
for maintenance. A more appropriate dosage form may be required.
