About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Minilactone Tablet is a combination medication containing Furosemide (20mg) and Spironolactone (25mg), indicated for the treatment of edema and hypertension in patients with heart failure. The tablet is designed to provide a balanced diuretic and anti-hypertensive effect, facilitating the elimination of excess fluid and reducing blood pressure. Furosemide, a loop diuretic, promotes the excretion of sodium and chloride ions, thereby increasing urine output and reducing fluid retention. Spironolactone, a potassium-sparing diuretic, enhances the excretion of potassium and reduces the loss of this essential electrolyte. The combined action of these two agents helps to mitigate the effects of heart failure, alleviating symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling. Minilactone Tablet is suitable for patients with mild to moderate heart failure, with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 30% or greater. It is essential to monitor patients closely for signs of electrolyte imbalance and adjust dosage as necessary.

How It Works
Furosemide inhibits the Na-K-2Cl cotransporter in the loop of Henle, leading to increased diuresis and reduced blood volume.
