Dytor-5 tablet contains the following component:

• Torsemide (5 MG) - It works by blocking the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the kidneys, leading to increased urine output. This helps to reduce fluid accumulation in the body and reduce symptoms associated with conditions that cause fluid retention. 

• Store the medication at room temperature (15-25ºC).
• Protect it from light and moisture.
• Keep the tablets out of the reach of children.
• Do not use the medicine after the expiry date has passed.

In addition to taking Dytor-5 tablet, specific diet and lifestyle changes can help support your overall well-being. Here are some tips to consider:

• Limit your sodium (salt) intake as directed by your doctor. High sodium intake can lead to fluid retention, which may counteract the diuretic effect of Dytor-5 tablets.
• Follow your doctor's advice on maintaining an appropriate fluid intake. Avoid excessive consumption of fluids, especially if you have fluid retention issues, to optimise the medication's effectiveness.
• This medication can cause potassium loss, so include potassium-rich foods in your diet in moderation, such as bananas, oranges, spinach, and sweet potatoes, to help maintain healthy potassium levels.
• Attend regular medical check-ups as advised to monitor liver and kidney function, electrolyte levels, and blood pressure while using this tablet. This will ensure proper management and minimise potential side effects.
• Engage in regular physical activity as recommended by your doctor. Regular exercise can support heart health and overall well-being. However, consult with your doctor before starting any exercise regimen.
