Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Aliskiren (Tekturna) is available as combination therapy with Hydrochlorothiazide. Aliskiren is direct renin inhibitor and a newer class of antihypertensive drug. Treating physician remains the best judge.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. T. K. Biswas
