Official title
Optimal Hydrochlorothiazide Cessation in Diagnosis of Hyperparathyroidism
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the most common cause of hypercalcemia in the ambulatory setting. PHPT may be cured with surgery and indications for intervention have been defined and include urinary calcium/creatinine clearance. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), the most commonly prescribed medication for hypertension, reduces urinary calcium excretion and confounds urinary testing. As a result, it is universally recommended that thiazide diuretics be stopped in advance of urinary testing. To date, no studies are available to provide evidence-based guidance as to how long HCTZ must be held for urinary calcium excretion to return to steady state in PHPT. The objective of this study is to serially calculate urinary calcium/creatinine clearance ration in patients with suspected PHPT while holding HCTZ to determine the minimum duration of medication cessation necessary for urinary calcium clearance to reach steady state.
