Torsid 10 Tablet contains Torsemide (10 mg), which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Acts on Kidneys: Torsemide works on a specific part of your kidneys known as the loop of Henle.

• Inhibits Sodium-Potassium-Chloride Cotransporter: This action prevents the reabsorption of these electrolytes, leading to their excretion along with water.

• Increases Urine Production: By promoting diuresis (increased urine production), it helps eliminate excess accumulated fluid from your body.

• Reduces Cardiac Workload: As it decreases fluid overload in the body, it reduces the workload on your heart and lowers blood pressure.

• Store Torsid 10 Tablet at a cool room temperature below 30°C.

• Keep the medicine in its original packaging, tightly closed to protect from light and moisture.

• If you have oedema or high blood pressure, try to limit your salt intake. Excess salt can increase fluid retention and raise blood pressure.
