Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 may have the following common side effects:

Dizziness
Muscle cramps
Headache
Hypotension: This refers to low blood pressure, which can make you feel faint or lightheaded.
Electrolyte imbalances: This happens when the levels of important minerals in your blood become too low, causing symptoms like weakness or irregular heartbeat.
Increased urinary frequency: You may need to pass urine more often than usual.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless and are resolved by discontinuing the use of Frusimed 40 Tablet 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some tips for managing common side effects:

Dizziness: Take Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 in the morning rather than later in the day to avoid nighttime dizziness.
Increased urinary frequency: Take this medicine early in the morning to avoid disruption to your sleep from needing to urinate at night.

Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 contains frusemide (40 mg), which works on the body as follows:

Inhibits sodium reabsorption: Frusemide blocks the reabsorption of sodium, chloride, and water in specific parts of the kidneys called the ascending loop of Henle and the distal renal tubule.
Increases urine production: By preventing salt and water reabsorption, frusemide causes increased urine output, which helps eliminate excess fluid from the body.
Reduces blood volume: The removal of excess fluid leads to decreased blood volume, which reduces the workload on your heart.
Lowers blood pressure: By reducing fluid volume in your blood vessels, frusemide helps decrease blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 if you are pregnant. It may cause jaundice, low blood platelet count (thrombocytopenia), and changes in body salt levels in newborns. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Alcohol

Avoid alcohol while taking Frusimed 40 Tablet 10. Drinking alcohol with this medicine might increase the risk of dizziness, lightheadedness, and dehydration. Alcohol can also worsen the drop in blood pressure caused by this medicine.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 in case of liver problems. This medicine requires careful monitoring if you have liver disease, as it may worsen your condition or trigger liver coma. Your doctor should assess your liver function before prescribing this medicine.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 if you have kidney problems. This medicine works directly on your kidneys to increase urine production. Your doctor may need to monitor your kidney function regularly during treatment.

Using Machines & Driving

Take care while driving or operating machinery when using Frusimed 40 Tablet 10. This medicine may cause dizziness or lightheadedness due to its effect on blood pressure, which could affect your ability to concentrate.

Allergy

Children

Caution is advised while giving Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 to children. The dosage for children is usually calculated based on body weight. Always consult your doctor before giving this medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Frusimed 40 Tablet 10 under medical supervision, as they may be more sensitive to its effects. This medicine can cause significant fluid and electrolyte loss, which may be more problematic in older adults. Your doctor will likely monitor you more frequently.
