Product Description:

ZEMITOR-PLUS combines two complementary diuretics — Torsemide, a loop diuretic, and Spironolactone, a potassium-sparing diuretic — to deliver powerful and balanced fluid removal in patients with edema, congestive heart failure, or resistant hypertension. This combination not only reduces fluid overload but also helps preserve potassium levels, making it safer for long-term use.

Key Benefits:

• Effectively treats fluid retention in cardiac, renal, or hepatic disorders

• Helps manage high blood pressure unresponsive to single-agent therapy

• Minimizes the risk of hypokalemia (low potassium)

• Reduces leg swelling, breathlessness, and blood volume overload

• Long-acting and well-tolerated in chronic therapy

---

How it works:

• Torsemide increases the excretion of sodium and water from the kidneys by acting on the loop of Henle, providing a rapid and powerful diuretic effect.

• Spironolactone works as an aldosterone antagonist, promoting fluid loss while retaining potassium, balancing the side effects of loop diuretics and providing antihypertensive benefits.

How to use:

• Take 1 tablet once daily, preferably in the morning with or without food.

• Swallow whole with a glass of water.

• Follow your doctor’s prescribed duration and avoid abrupt discontinuation.

• Monitor your weight, blood pressure, and swelling regularly during treatment.

Safety Advice:

• Regular monitoring of electrolytes, especially potassium and sodium, is essential.

• Use with caution in diabetic patients as blood glucose may fluctuate.

---

Precautions:
