Toresa 10 MG Injection 2 ML contains torsemide (10 mg). Here's how it works on your body:

• Action on kidneys: Torsemide acts specifically on a part of your kidneys, the thick ascending limb called the loop of Henle.
• Inhibits the ion-carrier system. It works by blocking a system in your kidneys that carries sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), and chloride (2Cl-) ions. This leads to these ions being excreted along with water.
• Increases urine production: The result of this action is an increased production of urine (diuresis), which helps get rid of excess fluid from your body.

• Toresa 10 MG Injection 2 ML should be stored at room temperature, ideally below 30 °C.
• Do not freeze the injection.
• Keep it out of the reach of children.
• Always check the expiration date on the package before administration.

• If you're using Toresa 10 MG Injection 2 ML to manage conditions such as congestive heart failure or kidney disease, it could be beneficial to limit your sodium (salt) intake. This can help reduce fluid retention in your body.
• Regular, mild exercise can also support general heart health. However, do consult your doctor to discuss an exercise plan that's suitable for you.
