Genericart Spironolactone 25 mg Tablet

Genericart Spironolactone 25 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 25 mg of spironolactone in each tablet. It belongs to the potassium-sparing diuretic class, and it is used for conditions such as high blood pressure, swelling (edema) from heart, liver, or kidney problems, and certain hormone-related conditions. Genericart Spironolactone 25 mg Tablet may also be used to help manage heart failure in selected patients when a doctor thinks the benefits outweigh the risks. This strip/box contains 10 tablets manufactured by Swast Aushadhi Seva Generic Medicine Store.

How it works: Spironolactone works by blocking the action of aldosterone, a hormone that tells the kidneys to hold on to salt and water. As a tablet, Genericart Spironolactone 25 mg Tablet helps the body remove extra fluid while reducing potassium loss compared with some other diuretics.

Genericart Spironolactone 25 mg Tablet is a lower-strength tablet that allows a doctor to start or adjust treatment more gradually than with higher-dose spironolactone products. Because spironolactone can affect potassium levels, blood pressure, and kidney function, this 25 mg strength is often chosen when a clinician wants a smaller, more flexible dose for a specific patient.

Each Genericart Spironolactone 25 mg Tablet provides 25 mg of spironolactone. Depending on the condition being treated, it may be taken once daily or divided into more than one dose per day, but the exact schedule and maximum daily amount are decided by the prescriber.
