Torsemide 10 mg Tabs (SWASTOR 10)- GA
₹69.75
The Torsemide 10 mg Tablet (SWASTOR 10) is a prescription loop diuretic (water pill) used to treat fluid retention (edema) and high blood pressure. It helps your body eliminate excess water and salt through urine.
Key Information
- Active Ingredient: Torsemide 10 mg.
- Brand Name: Swastor 10 (other brands include Dytor, Tide, Torsemi, etc.).
- Mechanism of Action: It works on the kidneys to increase the flow of urine by blocking the reabsorption of sodium and chloride, which reduces fluid buildup and lowers blood pressure.
Uses
Torsemide 10 mg is prescribed for conditions including:
- Edema (swelling): Caused by congestive heart failure, liver disease (cirrhosis), or kidney disease.
- Hypertension (high blood pressure): To help control blood pressure and reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage.
Important Precautions and Side Effects
- Take as Directed: Use the medication exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional, usually once daily at the same time each day. Taking it in the morning is often advised to avoid nighttime urination.
- Do Not Stop Abruptly: Continue taking this medication even if you feel well. Stopping it without consulting your doctor can worsen your condition.
- Monitor Electrolytes: This medicine can lower potassium levels in your blood. Your doctor may recommend potassium-rich foods (like bananas or coconut water) or supplements and will likely ask for regular blood tests to monitor kidney function and electrolyte levels.
- Common Side Effects: Dizziness, headache, increased urination, dehydration, decreased blood pressure, and stomach upset are common.
- When to Call Your Doctor: Seek medical attention immediately if you experience serious side effects such as rapid or excessive weight loss, chest pain, difficulty breathing, hearing changes (ringing in ears or decreased hearing), or signs of severe electrolyte imbalance (e.g., muscle cramps, unusual thirst, confusion).
Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting or stopping any medication, and inform them of any other medications or health conditions you may have.
