Bendroflumethiazide is a thiazide diuretic that inhibits the sodium-chloride symporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule of the nephron, increasing excretion of sodium, chloride, and water. It also reduces peripheral vascular resistance and has antihypertensive effects.
Bendroflumethiazide is a thiazide diuretic that inhibits the sodium-chloride symporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney, reducing sodium and chloride reabsorption and promoting diuresis.
Adults: 10 mg orally once daily.
Hypertension: 2.5 mg orally once daily; may increase to 5 mg daily if needed. Edema: 2.5 to 10 mg orally once daily.

Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 2-4 hours; clinical context: dose adjustments may be needed in renal impairment.
Terminal elimination half-life: 6-9 hours; prolonged in renal impairment and in elderly patients.
Primarily renal (approximately 50-70% as unchanged drug); biliary/fecal elimination accounts for the remainder (30-50%).
Renal excretion: approximately 95% as unchanged drug; biliary/fecal: <5%.
