Description
Product Introduction:
Aldactone 50 Tablet is a medication classified as a diuretic (water pill), primarily used in the treatment of heart failure, high blood pressure (hypertension), and edema (swelling caused by excess fluid). It also helps manage low potassium levels (hypokalemia). Aldactone works by removing excess water and sodium from the body without losing potassium, making it effective in reducing swelling and controlling blood pressure.
It can be taken with or without food, but taking it consistently in the same manner is important for the best results. For reduced side effects, taking it with food is advised. Taking the tablet early in the day can help prevent frequent nighttime urination. Continue taking the medication as prescribed, even if you start feeling better, as discontinuing it may worsen your condition. In case you are being treated for high blood pressure, adopting a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a proper diet can enhance the effectiveness of this medication.
