About the Product:
Raftor 10mg Tablet is a diuretic (also known as a water tablet) that helps reduce swelling (edema) caused by fluid retention in the body. It is commonly used in patients with conditions like heart failure, liver disease, or kidney disease, and is also effective in managing high blood pressure (hypertension).
Raftor works by helping the body eliminate excess salt and water through increased urine output. This medication may be prescribed alone or alongside other treatments depending on your doctor’s recommendations. You can take Raftor with or without food, and it’s best to take it at the same time each day. To avoid waking up at night to urinate, try not to take this medicine within 4 hours of bedtime.
It’s important to continue taking Raftor 10mg even if you feel well, as stopping it suddenly could cause your condition to worsen. In addition to medication, lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, managing stress, and quitting smoking can help improve your overall health and the effectiveness of Raftor.
Salt Composition/Key Ingredients:
- Torasemide (10mg): A potent diuretic that works by promoting the excretion of excess salt and water from the body through urine, helping to manage fluid retention and lower blood pressure.
