Do you transition patients with recurrent nephrolithiasis and hypercalciuria off of hydrochlorothiazide in favor of an alternative thiazide diuretic?

No. Assuming the patient tolerates HCTZ well, and it is effective in lowering hypercalciuria, I continue it. Most of the thiazide research has been done using this agent.
