The common, long-term use of
hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) for treatment of hypertension, combined with its known photosensitizing effects, makes it a potential candidate for increasing the risk of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and other skin cancers.

hydrochlorothiazide use between 1995 and 2012 and found a clear dose-response patterns for both basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), with a more than sevenfold increased risk of SCC for a cumulative use of greater than or equal to 200,000 mg of
hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ).

hydrochlorothiazide (hydro), rilmenidine, and nebivolol, which corresponds to the recommendations mentioned above.
