Dyrenium Side Effects: An Overview

As with any medicine, side effects are possible with Dyrenium^® (triamterene); however, not everyone who takes the medication will experience side effects. In fact, most people tolerate it quite well. If side effects do occur, in most cases, they are minor and either require no treatment or can be easily treated by you or your healthcare provider.

(This article covers many, but not all, possible side effects with Dyrenium. Your healthcare provider can discuss a more complete list of Dyrenium side effects with you.)

Reported Dyrenium Side Effects

Dyrenium has been studied thoroughly in clinical trials, in which a group of people taking the drug have side effects documented and compared to another group not taking the medicine.
