What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Zaroxolyn Overview
Metolazone is a "water pill" (diuretic) that increases the amount of urine you make, which causes your body to get rid of excess water. Zaroxolyn is used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Zaroxolyn also reduces swelling/fluid retention (edema) which can result from conditions such as congestive heart failure or kidney disease. This can help to improve symptoms such as trouble breathing.
How to Use Zaroxolyn
Take Zaroxolyn by mouth with or without food, usually once daily, or as directed by your doctor. The Dosage of Zaroxolyn is based on your medical condition and response to therapy. If you take Zaroxolyn too close to bedtime, you may need to wake up to urinate. It is best to take Zaroxolyn at least 4 hours before your bedtime. Use Zaroxolyn regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use Zaroxolyn at the same time each day as directed. Keep taking Zaroxolyn even if you feel well. Most people with high blood pressure do not feel sick. Do not stop taking Zaroxolyn without consulting your doctor. It may take up to 3-6 weeks to see a lowering of your blood pressure. Cholestyramine and colestipol can decrease the absorption of metolazone. If you are taking either of these drugs, separate metolazone from cholestyramine by at least 4 hours and from colestipol by at least 2 hours. If your condition lasts or gets worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist.
