Aldostix 20/50 MG Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients:

• Spironolactone (50 mg): This component is a potassium-sparing diuretic that works as an aldosterone antagonist. It blocks the effects of aldosterone, a hormone that promotes sodium retention and potassium loss in the body, thereby increasing sodium and water excretion while maintaining potassium.

• Furosemide (20 mg): Also known as furosemide, this is a loop diuretic that inhibits sodium and chloride reabsorption in specific parts of the kidneys called the ascending loop of Henle and distal renal tubule. This action leads to increased urine production and decreased fluid retention in the body.
