Background
Nephrolithiasis is one the most frequent conditions affecting the kidney and characterized by a high risk of recurrence. Thiazide diuretics are widely used for kidney stone recurrence prevention, but data are limited regarding their efficacy as compared with placebo and any dose–response relationship.
Methods
In this double-blind trial, we randomly assigned patients with recurrent calcium-containing kidney stones to 12.5 mg, 25 mg or 50 mg hydrochlorothiazide or placebo once daily. The main objective was to investigate the dose–response relationship for prevention of the primary end point, a composite of symptomatic or radiologic recurrence.
Results
A total of 416 patients underwent randomization, median duration of follow-up was 2.92 years. A primary end point occurred in 60 of 102 patients (59%) receiving placebo, in 62 of 105 patients (59%) receiving 12.5 mg hydrochlorothiazide (rate ratio, 1.33; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92 to 1.93), in 61 of 108 patients (56%) receiving 25 mg hydrochlorothiazide (rate ratio, 1.24; 95% CI, 0.86 to 1.79), and in 49 of 101 patients (49%) receiving 50 mg hydrochlorothiazide (rate ratio, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.63 to 1.36). There was no linear relationship between hydrochlorothiazide dose and the primary end point (P=0.66). Hypokalemia, gouty arthritis and new onset diabetes mellitus occurred more frequently in patients assigned to hydrochlorothiazide compared to placebo.
Conclusion
Among patients with recurrent kidney stones, recurrence rates were not different between patients receiving once daily 12.5 mg, 25 mg or 50 mg hydrochlorothiazide or placebo. (Funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation; NOSTONE ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03057431).
