Drug | Tablet

Edema (fluid retention) due to heart failure, liver cirrhosis or kidney disease; management of hypertension where a diuretic combination is needed

Torsemide is a loop diuretic that increases salt and water excretion from kidneys to reduce fluid overload and blood pressure. Spironolactone is an aldosterone antagonist (potassium-sparing diuretic) that helps remove excess fluid while reducing potassium loss and counteracting aldosterone effects.

Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily in the morning to reduce night-time urination. Can be taken with or without food; take at the same time each day. Do not stop abruptly without medical advice; periodic blood tests for electrolytes and kidney function may be needed.

Frequent urination, dizziness, low blood pressure, dehydration, nausea, headache, increased potassium, breast tenderness/gynecomastia, menstrual irregularities

Risk of dehydration and electrolyte imbalance (especially high potassium due to spironolactone). Use with caution in kidney or liver impairment, diabetes, gout, and in elderly. Seek help for muscle weakness, palpitations, severe dizziness, reduced urination, or signs of high potassium. Avoid potassium supplements and potassium-rich salt substitutes unless prescribed.

ACE inhibitors/ARBs/aliskiren (hyperkalemia), other diuretics (electrolyte changes), NSAIDs (reduced diuretic effect/kidney risk), lithium (toxicity), digoxin (arrhythmia risk if electrolytes disturbed), potassium supplements, trimethoprim (hyperkalemia), corticosteroids (hypokalemia with loop diuretic component)
