Excellent! Indeed, thiazide diuretics work on the distal convoluted tubule, which results in excretion of sodium and potassium in the urine, thus leading to decreased levels in the plasma. Conversely, the levels of calcium in the blood are increased due to reduced excretion of this electrolyte in the urine.
