Amifru 40 Tablet 10’s belongs to the class of ‘diuretic drugs or water pills’, primarily used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and oedema (fluid retention). Hypertension is a medical condition, in which the blood exerts high pressure (force exerted by circulating blood) against blood vessel’s walls. This condition makes the heart to work harder in pumping the blood to the whole body. Hypertension can cause severe health complications, including stroke, heart failure, heart attack and kidney failure. Oedema is a condition caused by a build-up of fluid and swelling in the ankles, feet and legs. Amifru 40 Tablet 10’s prevents the build-up of extra water in the body. This excess water can cause swollen ankles, shortness of breath and tiredness. It consists of Furosemide (loop diuretic) and Amiloride (potassium-sparing diuretic). Furosemide inhibits reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the ascending loop of Henle and proximal and distal renal tubules (different parts of the nephron in the kidney). Amiloride inhibits sodium-potassium exchange in the distal tubule of nephron (functional unit of the kidney). Amifru 40 Tablet 10’s helps in clearing the excess fluids in the body in the form of urine. Your doctor will advise you how often you take Amifru 40 Tablet 10’s based on your medical condition.
