Diuretics belong into the group of basic antihypertensive drugs. A number of clinical trials provided evidence that long-term administration of diuretics leads not only to effective control of hypertension but has at the same time a favourable impact on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Along with beta-blockers diuretics are recommended as drugs of first choice in patients with arterial hypertension. The author presents a brief account of different groups of diuretics incl. their indications.
