Dytor 100 mg contains Torsemide, which belongs to a class of medications known as diuretics or water tablets. It is prescribed to treat oedema associated with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or kidney impairment. The use of Dytor is effective when it comes to treating oedema associated with chronic renal insufficiency. Torsemide reduces the swelling caused by excessive water in the body in people with liver disease, kidney disorder, and heart failure. Chronic use of any diuretic in liver disease has not been studied. Torsemide is also effective in treating hypertension alone or with another antihypertensive drug.    

The dosage depends on your condition's severity and how your body responds to the treatment. Dytor is mostly prescribed for daily consumption and can be taken before or after consuming food. It may affect the sleeping pattern. Patients are generally advised not to take this medicine for about four hours before bedtime, as they may need to urinate frequently in the middle of the night. It is important to continue to take medicine regularly, even if you feel well. If you discontinue treatment without speaking to your doctor, your condition may worsen. Lifestyle changes such as restricting salt intake, reducing stress, and stopping smoking may help this medication work even better. 

Do not use alcohol or over-the-counter products without consulting your doctor. You may experience postural hypotension; change position slowly when standing, sitting, or lying. Torsemide may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or blurred vision; avoid driving or engaging in activities requiring alertness until a drug response is known. You may have reduced tolerance to heat; therefore, avoid strenuous activity in hot weather or hot shower.  

Before taking the tablet, tell your doctor if you have liver impairment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also talk to their doctor before starting the treatment. Regular monitoring of renal function and electrolyte levels is important while using this medicine. It may lower the potassium level in your bloodstream, so your doctor may ask you to add foods that contain potassium or prescribe potassium supplements. Dytor is not recommended for use if you have anuria (a condition in which the kidney cannot produce urine). It should be used carefully if you have an abnormal concentration of electrolytes in your body. Let your doctor know if you are taking any other medicine to avoid interaction with Torsemide.    

Common side effects of Dytor 100mg include dehydration, headache, dizziness, decreased blood pressure, and stomach upset. These side effects are usually mild and resolve after a short period. Consult your doctor if they become troublesome or do not go away within a few days or if you get any other side effect that is not mentioned in this information guide.
