Quinapril-Hydrochlorothiazide

Accuretic is a combination drug used to treat hypertension. This medication contains quinapril and hydrochlorothiazide they work to relax the blood vessel so the blood can flow freely. Hydrochlorothiazide causes the body to produce more urine. This action causes the body to dispose of the extra water and salt.
