    20 Hours left to showtime, Dyazide!

    This is the only real board on the web where people can be real about diets, stacks, etc so thanks!

    I have a modeling shoot in 20 hours and I just popped a Dyazide to shed so extra sub-Q water weight. I hav one more, when should I take it? Also, I am drinking 20oz of Gatorade today, all before 5pm and then nothing till the shoot is over.

    Please let me know if I am doing this right.

    Thanks!

    I took Dyazide and I was in agonizing pain in my sides, then I researched it and it was a typical side effect.

    What is the dosage of your pill? Most people take 50mg in the am and 50mg in the pm the day before and then 50mg am the day of a show.

    Well Hydrochlorothiazide (which is the diuretic in Dyazide) is in and out of your system, Dyazide can be dangerous if you abuse it because it can cause abnormally high levels of Potassium (it is pottasium sparing). If you had plain HCTZ (hydrochlorothiazide) then the opposite would happen, you would get low on potassium, but then all you would have to do is supplement it. So next time try to get some HCTZ.

    Well in total I am taking 3 25mg Dyazide in about a 36 hour time period. I am just a little worried about the effects of no water for like 20 hours and some duiretics. Am I cool with the plan I have?
