Torsinex Plus Tablet acts on your body through two key ingredients:

• Spironolactone (25 mg): This component blocks a hormone called aldosterone in your body. Aldosterone is responsible for retaining sodium and water in the kidneys. By blocking aldosterone, spironolactone helps your kidneys eliminate excess water and sodium while keeping the right amount of potassium. This mechanism helps prevent potassium loss, which can happen with other diuretics.

• Torsemide (10 mg): This component, classified as a loop diuretic, inhibits the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in your kidneys. It specifically acts on two parts – the ascending loop of Henle and the distal renal tubule. As a result, your body gets rid of extra water, sodium, chloride, magnesium, and calcium.

Together, these two ingredients help remove excess fluid from the body while maintaining a balance of important electrolytes, especially potassium.

• Store your Torsinex Plus Tablet in a cool, dry place at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep the container tightly closed to protect it from light and moisture.

• Ensure the medication is kept out of reach of children at all times.

• Always check the expiry date on the label and avoid using the tablet past this date.

• As Torsinex Plus Tablet manages heart conditions and fluid retention, try to maintain a low-salt diet. Avoid processed foods, as they often contain high sodium levels.

• Regular light exercise, such as walking or swimming, can help manage hypertension. However, ensure you stay well-hydrated and avoid strenuous activities that might cause dehydration. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
