Overview
Diuride 20mg Tablets (20 pack) are a loop diuretic (“water tablet”) used to remove excess fluid from the body and to help control high blood pressure. Loop diuretics make the kidneys pass more salt and water as urine, relieving the fluid build-up (oedema) and breathlessness caused by heart failure, kidney disease and liver disease, and helping lower blood pressure. Fast and effective, they ease swelling and fluid overload. A widely used therapy for patients managed under medical care.
Loop diuretic 20mg per tablet. Exact active (e.g. torsemide or furosemide) not verified; confirm on product packaging.
