Torsinex 10mg is a pharmaceutical-grade diuretic medication (Loop Diuretic) designed for the clinical management of edema (fluid retention) and hypertension. Its active ingredient, Torsemide, works by acting on the kidneys to increase the excretion of water and salts like sodium and chloride. This helps reduce the volume of fluid circulating in the blood and trapped in body tissues, providing a stable clinical tool for managing cardiovascular and renal-related fluid overload in the Nigerian environment.
Active Ingredient: Torsemide 10mg
Drug Class: Loop Diuretic
Formulation: Tablet
Route: Oral
Pack Size: 10 or 30 Tablets (Typical)

Micro Labs Limited — A trusted global pharmaceutical provider specializing in high-quality cardiovascular and diuretic therapies.
Torsinex 10mg is primarily indicated for the treatment of edema associated with congestive heart failure, renal disease, or hepatic disease. It is also used in the clinical management of hypertension, either alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents. By removing excess fluid, it helps relieve symptoms such as shortness of breath and swelling in the legs, ankles, or abdomen.
Electrolyte Balance: Like all potent diuretics, Torsinex can cause low levels of potassium, sodium, and magnesium. Regular blood tests may be required to monitor your electrolyte levels.
Dehydration Risk: Excessive use can lead to profound water and electrolyte depletion. Monitor for signs such as extreme thirst, confusion, or a significant decrease in urine output.
Deafness/Tinnitus: Rare cases of ear ringing or temporary hearing loss have been reported with loop diuretics, usually with high doses or rapid administration.
Sulfonamide Allergy: Patients with a known allergy to sulfonamides should use this medication with caution, as cross-reactivity may occur.
Take Torsinex exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually taken once daily, preferably in the morning to avoid "nocturia" (having to wake up during the night to urinate). You can take the tablet with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. It is important to maintain a consistent schedule to ensure stable fluid management and blood pressure control.
Commonly reported effects include an increased frequency of urination, headache, dizziness, and mild stomach upset. Some patients may experience muscle cramps or fatigue due to changes in electrolyte levels. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience persistent vomiting, severe dizziness, or an irregular heartbeat.
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maintain molecular stability in the Nigerian climate, keep the tablets in their original blister packaging until use. Protecting the medication from heat and humidity is essential for ensuring the active ingredient remains effective. Keep out of reach of children.
