Thiazide diuretics have been in clinical use for more than 60 years. Small studies published in the 1950s/60s reported that chlorothiazide had less diuretic and antihypertensive effect in patients with lower glomerular filtration rates which led to the belief that thiazides are ineffective in advanced CKD. The Chlorthalidone in Chronic Kidney Disease (CLICK) Trial challenges this dogma.
