What Is Torsemide 20mg?

Torsemide is a prescription loop diuretic sold under the brand name Demadex. It works in the kidneys to help your body remove excess salt and water through urine, which reduces swelling (edema) and can lower blood pressure. Doctors commonly prescribe torsemide for fluid buildup related to heart failure, chronic kidney disease, or liver disease (cirrhosis). It is taken by mouth, usually once daily, and its effects typically last through most of the day.
