Hello, Ang! How are you?

Yes and they are often prescribed together to get better control of high blood pressure, congestive heart failure or edema.

The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination and dehydration.

Is there anything else I can help with?
