Metabolic profile of indapamide sustained-release in patients with hypertension: data from three randomised double-blind studies.

Objective: To evaluate the influence of indapamide sustained-release (SR) 1.5 mg/day, a thiazide-related sulfonamide diuretic, on serum levels of lipids (total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglycerides), glucose and uric acid, and renal function (serum urea and creatinine levels).
