Dytor Plus 10mg Strip Of 15 Tablets
Medical Description
Dytor Plus 10 mg tablet is a type of diuretic, also known as a water pill. This medicine helps increase the frequency of urination. It is commonly used to treat swelling in the lower limbs caused by the accumulation of excess fluid. Such swelling can occur due to various conditions, such as heart problems that reduce blood pumping, damaged kidney and liver filtration function, or low levels of potassium in the blood. Dytor Plus 10 mg tablet is also used to treat high blood pressure. This combination medicine contains two active ingredients - torsemide and spironolactone - which help lower blood pressure and remove excess fluid from the body.
Oedema is a condition of excess fluid in your body's tissues. It usually occurs in the feet, ankles and legs, but it can involve your entire body. Certain medical conditions, sitting or standing too long, eating salty food, as a side effect of certain medicines, etc., can cause oedema. Dyloop Plus 10mg tablet, Jbtor Plus tablet, Torget Plus 10mg tablet, Torsid Plus 10/50mg tablet, and Aldactone T 10mg tablet also contain the same composition.
