Verospilactone
Veroshpilactone is a medication that contains Spironolactone, a potassium-sparing diuretic. It is primarily used to treat conditions like hypertension and heart failure by helping the body excrete excess fluid while retaining potassium. Spironolactone works by blocking aldosterone, a hormone that regulates salt and water balance in the body. This medication is beneficial in reducing fluid retention (edema) associated with liver cirrhosis and certain kidney conditions. Veroshpilactone tablets are easy to administer and can be an integral part of a treatment plan for patients with chronic heart and liver issues. It is important to adhere to the prescribed dosage to maintain optimal health benefits.Active substance:
