Torsinol-10 Tablet
Description
TorSinol 10 Tablet is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure and conditions associated with fluid retention, such as oedema.

By reducing fluid buildup, TorSinol 10 Tablet helps decrease swelling and eases the workload on the heart, kidneys, and liver, supporting better overall health.
This medicine is commonly prescribed for patients with heart, liver, or kidney-related conditions that cause fluid retention.

Regular use as prescribed is essential to achieve the best results.
