Product Overview

Torsid Plus 10/50 Tablet is a combination medicine that helps reduce excess fluid in the body while preserving potassium levels. It is commonly used to treat conditions such as edema (fluid retention) and certain types of high blood pressure.

How to Take It

For optimal results, it is recommended to take Torsid Plus 10/50 Tablet in the morning with food, which helps prevent frequent urination during the night.

Precautions

If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before using this medicine. It is also important to share information about all other medications you are taking, as some interactions may occur.

Uses

Treatment of edema (swelling caused by fluid accumulation)

Benefits

Edema leads to swelling, often affecting the feet, legs, or arms, and in some cases, the whole body. Torsid Plus 10/50 Tablet helps your body eliminate excess water through increased urine output, thereby relieving swelling and discomfort. It also helps maintain potassium balance, which is essential for healthy body functions. Regular use along with appropriate lifestyle changes, such as reducing salt intake and staying active, can further enhance its effectiveness.

Possible Side Effects

Most side effects are mild and usually resolve as the body adjusts to the medication. However, if side effects persist or cause concern, contact your doctor. Common side effects include:

Dizziness

Frequent urination

Headache

Nasal inflammation

Muscle pain

Digestive issues

Increased liver enzymes

Diarrhea

Memory problems

Menstrual cramps

Abnormal heart rhythm on ECG

How It Works

This combination tablet contains torasemide, a diuretic that helps the kidneys remove extra water and salt, and spironolactone, a potassium-sparing diuretic that prevents excessive potassium loss. Together, they reduce fluid buildup and blood pressure while helping maintain the body’s potassium levels, effectively treating edema without major electrolyte disturbances.

Instructions for Use

Take the tablet as directed by your doctor. It should be swallowed whole and not chewed, crushed, or broken. It is advised to take this medicine with food to minimize stomach upset.
