Consult your doctor first:

Even if the salt is the same, your doctor can confirm if the substitute is right for your condition, dosage, and health history.

Watch out for allergies or reactions:

Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.

Uses

Medicinal Benefits

Frumil Tablet prevents the build-up of extra water in the body and treats hypertension (high blood pressure) and oedema (fluid retention). Frumil Tablet is a combination of medicine that consists of Furosemide and Amiloride. Furosemide is a 'loop diuretic' that treats high blood pressure, fluid retention (oedema) in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease or nephrotic syndrome (a kidney disease). Amiloride is a 'potassium-sparing diuretic' and treats hypokalemia (low potassium levels in the blood) in people with high blood pressure or congestive heart failure. Frumil Tablet works by acting on different parts of the kidney to remove extra fluid and certain electrolytes while maintaining the body's potassium balance. Frumil Tablet clears the excess fluids in the body in the form of urine.
