Dytor 10 MG Description

Dytor 10 tablets are a medication that helps lower blood pressure by eliminating excess fluid from the body. They are commonly known as "water pills." This medication is primarily used to manage high blood pressure and can also alleviate swelling, or oedema, in the limbs and body. Swelling is often associated with conditions such as heart failure, and liver or kidney damage. Torsemide is the active ingredient in Dytor 10 tablets and is classified as a diuretic. Torsemide works by acting on the kidneys to eliminate excess fluid from the body.

Avoid consuming excess salt and potassium in your diet. Exercise regularly and avoid consuming alcohol and smoking while on this medicine. Tide 10 tablet, Torget 10 tablet, Torsinol 10 tablet and Torsid 10 tablet also contain torsemide as the active ingredient.

Oedema is a condition of excess fluid in your body's tissues. It usually occurs in the feet, ankles and legs, but it can involve your entire body. Certain medical conditions, sitting or standing too long, eating salty food, as a side effect of certain medicines, etc., can cause oedema.

Dytor 10 mg tablet is recommended to be taken in doses and duration strictly as prescribed by a doctor. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding and about all the medicines and supplements you take and all the conditions or diseases you suffer from before starting the Dytor 10 tablet.
