Metoz 2.5 Tablet contains metolazone (4 mg). It acts on the body in the following ways

• Increases Sodium and Water Excretion: Metolazone increases the excretion of sodium, chloride, and water by acting on your kidneys. It works by inhibiting sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules of your kidneys.

• Diuresis: The inhibition of sodium reabsorption leads to an increased urine output, a process known as diuresis. This helps in reducing excess fluid volume in your body, thereby decreasing edema and lowering blood pressure.

• Potassium and Magnesium Excretion: Apart from sodium and water, metolazone also promotes the excretion of potassium and magnesium from your body.
