Moduretic Dosage

Generally, the recommended starting Moduretic dosage (for any use) is one tablet a day (equal to 5 mg of amiloride and 50 mg of hydrochlorothiazide), taken with food. Your healthcare provider may increase this dosage up to two tablets a day, if necessary. In some cases, people may only need to take their Moduretic dosage every other day or even less frequently.

• The medication should be taken at the same time each day to maintain an even level in your blood.
   
• Because Moduretic increases urination, it is best to take it in the morning (to avoid needing to get up to use the bathroom throughout the night), unless your healthcare provider instructs you otherwise.
