Why is Demadex prescribed?

Torsemide (Demadex) is prescribed alone or in combination with other medications for the treatment of high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, kidney diseases, liver diseases, edema and other heart problems.

What does it do?

Torsemide, classified as a loop diuretic, is an antihypertensive agent that primarily works by inhibiting the reabsorption of ions such as sodium and chloride in the ascending loop of Henle; thus, increases water excretion through urination and decreases absorption of salt in the body.

How should I take it?

Demadex and its generic equivalents are currently available as 5mg, 10mg, 20mg and 100mg tablets that should be taken as a whole (do not split) by mouth, with or without food.

The dosage strength depends on every patient’s condition and the doctor’s prescription. It is imperative that you do not self-medicate and only take this drug after consulting with your doctor or pharmacist to determine the best dosage and dosing schedule for the treatment of your condition.

What if I missed a dose?

The desired effects of prescribed medications will only be achieved if taken properly. As much as possible, strictly follow your doctor’s prescribed dosing schedule. However, if you miss a dose, take it immediately and adjust the time of your next dose depending on your doctor’s advice. Never take two doses at the same time just to make up for your missed dose.

What are the special precautions before taking Demadex?

Before taking Torsemide, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any allergies to food or to the drug itself as it may contain several inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or problems.

Inform your doctor about your past and current medical history, especially if you have or have had liver disease, kidney disease, gout, lupus, inability to urinate, thyroid disorder, high cholesterol and triglyceride, enlarged prostate and diabetes.

Avoid drinking alcohol as this may cause dizziness or drowsiness which can add to the effects of Torsemide.

Consult your doctor regarding all the other medications you use before getting surgery.

Note: Reduction of potassium levels in the bloodstream is seen when taking Furosemide. Eating potassium-rich containing food is highly recommended.
