DYtor Plus 5 Tablet

Description

DYtor Plus 5 Tablet is a combination diuretic (water pill) containing Spironolactone (50mg) and Torasemide (5mg). It is primarily used for the treatment of edema (fluid retention) associated with heart failure, liver cirrhosis, or kidney disorders, and also helps in managing hypertension (high blood pressure).

Spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic, which prevents the loss of potassium, while Torasemide is a loop diuretic that promotes the elimination of excess salt and water. Together, they help reduce swelling, prevent fluid buildup, and lower blood pressure effectively without causing severe potassium depletion.
