A member asked:
Resubmit #: is there a thiazide diuretic medication(s) that does not raise glucose levels?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Glucose: We keep learning that more of our meds cause some elevation of glucose. I am unaware of any members of the thiazides family that don't cause this. The long term importance of this effect is not certain.
