Accuretic (Quinapril/HCTZ) contains 2 medications: quinapril, and hydrochlorothiazide. It is used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure could prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Quinapril belongs to a class of drugs known as ACE Inhibitors. It works by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more smoothly. Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a class of drugs known as diuretics. It works by producing more urine to help your body get rid of extra salt and water.
