Description
Active Ingredients:
Indapamide
Therapeutic actions:
Specifically, it is known as an indoline diuretic. Lozol (Indapamide) is unlike any other diuretic; in fact, it is the only indoline diuretic. Although it is not entirely clear how indapamide works, it is thought that it works by increasing the amount of salt and water that the kidneys remove from the blood. This extra salt and water is passed out through urine. By increasing the amount of water removed from the blood, indapamide causes a decrease in blood volume. Because of this effect, indapamide can lower blood pressure and also help with water retention.
Indications:
High blood pressure (hypertension) control
Treatment of water retention (edema) due to congestive heart failure (CHF).
