🔹 Composition
Active ingredient: Torsemide 40 mg

🔹 How It Works
Torsemide acts primarily on the kidneys by reducing the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the loop of Henle.
As a result, more sodium and water are excreted in the urine. This helps reduce excess fluid in the body and can decrease swelling and, in some patients, help lower blood pressure.
