How Jbtor Plus Tablet works
Jbtor Plus 20 Tablet works by removing excess fluid and reducing blood pressure while maintaining the body's potassium balance. Torasemide, a diuretic, helps the kidneys eliminate extra salt and water, reducing swelling and lowering blood pressure. Spironolactone, a potassium-sparing diuretic, prevents excessive potassium loss while also helping remove excess fluid. Together, they help treat conditions like fluid buildup (edema) without causing major electrolyte imbalances.
