DYTOR 5 MG TABS 15'S (Torasemide 5 mg): A Loop Diuretic

DYTOR 5 MG TABS 15'S is a prescription-only loop diuretic containing Torasemide (Torsemide) 5 mg. It is commonly prescribed to treat edema (fluid retention) associated with heart failure, kidney disease, liver disease, and pulmonary edema. It is also used to help manage hypertension (high blood pressure).

Torasemide acts on the kidneys to increase the excretion of sodium, chloride, and water, reducing excess fluid accumulation and lowering blood pressure. Regular monitoring of kidney function, electrolyte levels, and blood pressure is recommended during treatment. Patients should use this medicine only under medical supervision.

How DYTOR 5 MG TABS 15'S (Torasemide 5 mg) Works

Torasemide is a loop diuretic that inhibits the sodium-potassium-chloride (Na⁺/K⁺/2Cl⁻) cotransporter in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle within the kidneys. This action prevents sodium and chloride reabsorption, increasing urine production and promoting the elimination of excess fluid and electrolytes. The reduction in circulating blood volume helps lower blood pressure and decreases the workload on the heart.
