Description
TOR 5 MG contains torsemide, a loop diuretic commonly prescribed to help manage high blood pressure and fluid retention linked to conditions such as heart failure, kidney disorders, and liver disease.

How TOR 5 MG Works
TOR 5 MG acts on the kidneys by blocking the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the loop of Henle. Consequently, the body produces more urine and removes excess fluid and salt. This process helps decrease blood volume, reduce swelling, and support healthier blood pressure levels.
