Furosemide

A loop diuretic that works by increasing urine output, helping to remove excess fluid from the body.

Spironolactone

A potassium-sparing diuretic that blocks the action of aldosterone, a hormone that helps the body retain sodium and water.

High blood pressure (hypertension)

Fluid retention (edema) caused by heart failure, liver disease, or kidney disease

Certain types of kidney disease

Hypokalemia (low potassium levels) in certain patients

Lasidac Tab (Furosemide + Spironolactone) work together to reduce fluid retention by increasing urine output and conserving potassium. Furosemide inhibits the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the loop of Henle, while spironolactone blocks the action of aldosterone in the distal tubules and collecting ducts, preventing sodium retention and promoting potassium retention. This combination helps to reduce blood pressure, eliminate excess fluid, and maintain potassium levels.
