Effects of this medicine
This medicine is categorized as a loop diuretic and exerts its diuretic action by inhibiting Na and Cl reabsorption in the renal tubule and lowers blood pressure by reducing circulatory blood flow through its diuretic action.
It is usually used to treat hypertension, malignant hypertension, edema due to cardiac/renal/hepatic/peripheral vascular disorder, premenstrual syndrome, and promote excretion of urinary calculi.
Dosing schedule (How to take this medicine)
・In general, for adults, take 2 to 4 tablets (40 to 80 mg of the active ingredient) at a time, once daily or once every two days. The dosage may be adjusted according to the age or symptoms. A much more dosage may be used if you have renal dysfunction. However, for the treatment of malignant hypertension, this medicine is usually co-administered with other anti-hypertensives. Strictly follow the instructions.
・If you miss a dose, take the missed dose as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. You should never take two doses at one time.
