A thiazide-like diuretic is a sulfonamide diuretic that has similar physiological properties to a thiazide diuretic, but doesn't have the chemical properties of a thiazide, lacking the benzothiadiazine molecular structure.
Examples include chlorthalidone and metolazone.
Some, such as indapamide are considered thiazide-like diuretics, but don't necessarily have the same mechanism.[1]
