About Spiromide Tablet

Spiromide Tablet used to treat oedema. It effectively reduces excess fluid levels in the body and treats oedema (swelling) associated with heart, liver, kidney, or lung disease.

Spiromide Tablet works by increasing the amount of urine that is passed out from the kidneys. Thus, it lowers high blood pressure and reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, or chest pain.
