Tormex-Plus 20

Torsemide with Spironolactone Tablets – Spironolactone+Torsemide belongs to a class of medicine called ‘diuretics’ (water pills), primarily used to remove excess water from the body. It also maintains the bloodstream’s potassium level and prevents hypertension (high blood pressure due to oedema (fluid retention).

Oedema or fluid overload is associated with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lung) or heart failure (irregular heart pumping). Leg swelling is the main characteristic of oedema, accompanied by shortness of breath, chest pain (angina), abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmia) and swelling in other hands or abdomen areas.

How to Take Tormex Plus 20 Tablet?

• Spironolactone+Torsemide is a combination of medication containing Spirolactone and Torsemide.
• Both spironolactone and torsemide are diuretics and are prescribed for the treatment of resistant oedema (fluid overload) associated with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs), heart failure, and hepatic cirrhosis (chronic liver damage).
• Spironolactone+Torsemide works by increasing the amount of urine that is passed out from the kidneys.
• It effectively reduces excess fluid levels in the body and treats oedema (swelling) associated with heart, liver, kidney or lung disease. This reduces the heart’s workload and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body.
• Thus, it also helps lower high blood pressure, reducing the chances of any future heart attack, stroke or angina (chest pain) in the future.
• You can take Spironolactone+Torsemide with food or without food with a glass of water.
• Take it preferably in the daytime to avoid frequent urination in the nighttime.
• Do not chew, crush or break it.
• Your doctor will advise you how often you take Spironolactone+Torsemide based on your medical condition.
