Product introduction

Trymax 2mg Tablet is used to treat edema caused by conditions such as congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, steroid-induced edema, and edema due to secondary hyperaldosteronism. It helps the body remove extra fluid by increasing urine production while reducing the loss of potassium.

Take Trymax 2mg Tablet exactly as prescribed, usually after meals, to help avoid stomach upset. To get the most benefit, follow your doctor’s instructions closely. While on treatment with this medicine, avoid potassium supplements unless advised. Also, attend regular check-ups to monitor kidney function and potassium levels.


The common side effects include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and leg cramps. These effects are usually mild, but if they persist, worsen, or become bothersome, contact your doctor. If you experience serious side effects such as muscle weakness, irregular heartbeat, or unusual tiredness, consult your doctor immediately. These conditions can be dangerous, and regular monitoring of potassium and kidney function may be recommended.


Trymax 2mg Tablet should not be used by people with severe kidney disease, anuria, severe liver disease, or known high potassium levels. It must also be avoided in patients who are already taking other potassium-sparing diuretics, as this can lead to dangerously high potassium levels. Caution is needed in older adults, people with diabetes, and those with impaired kidney function, as they are more likely to develop hyperkalemia.


Foods, supplements, or salt substitutes containing potassium should be avoided unless specifically approved by your doctor. The medicine may also interact with NSAIDs, ACE inhibitors, lithium, and certain other medications, so you should inform your doctor about all the medicines you are taking. Pregnant and nursing women should use this medicine only if clearly necessary.
