Tolvat 30 Tablet 4

Tolvat 30 Tablet is used for the following:

• Managing clinically significant hypervolemic hyponatremia: This is a condition where your body retains too much water, resulting in low sodium levels in your blood.

• Controlling euvolemic hyponatremia: This happens when your body retains water but doesn't have an excess of sodium.

• Assisting in conditions like heart failure, where your heart doesn't pump blood as well as it should.

• Helping those with liver cirrhosis, which is scarring of the liver due to long-term liver damage.

• Dealing with the Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH), a disorder where your body makes too much antidiuretic hormone, causing water retention and low sodium levels.

When taking Tolvat 30 Tablet, please follow these steps:

• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.

• Avoid crushing or chewing the tablet.

• You can take this medicine with or without food.

• When you feel thirsty during treatment, drink water to avoid dehydration.

• Do not take more than the recommended dose without consulting your doctor.

• It's important not to stop taking this medicine without speaking to your doctor first.

Tolvat 30 Tablet is taken orally.

Tolvat 30 Tablet contains Tolvaptan (30 Mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Vasopressin V2-Receptor Antagonist: Tolvaptan is a selective vasopressin V2-receptor antagonist. It binds to V2-receptors in your kidney, blocking the effects of vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone.

• Induces Aquaresis: By blocking the effects of vasopressin, Tolvaptan causes aquaresis, which is the excretion of free water from the body. This process does not affect the excretion of sodium and potassium.

• Increases Serum Sodium Concentrations: As Tolvaptan causes loss of water from the body, it decreases water retention, leading to an increase in serum sodium concentrations. This helps manage hyponatremia or low sodium levels in the blood.

• Store Tolvat 30 Tablet at a cool room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep it in its original packaging to safeguard it from moisture.

• Place the medicine in a spot away from direct light and heat.

• Always keep Tolvat 30 Tablet out of the reach of children.

• Make sure to use this medicine before its expiry date.

• Since Tolvat 30 Tablet is used to manage hyponatremia, it's advisable to limit your water intake. Overconsumption of water can dilute sodium in your body, worsening your condition. Consult your doctor for specific instructions about fluid intake.

• If you're dealing with heart failure or liver cirrhosis, reduce your salt intake. Consuming too much salt can lead to fluid retention, exacerbating these conditions. Opt for low-sodium alternatives when possible.
