Product Description

Aldactone 100 mg is a prescription medication primarily used to treat conditions such as high blood pressure (hypertension), fluid retention (edema) caused by heart failure, and certain cases of low potassium levels. It belongs to the class of medications known as potassium-sparing diuretics and works by blocking aldosterone, a hormone that regulates salt and water in the body. This helps reduce fluid buildup and maintain a healthy electrolyte balance.

Precautions

Medical History: Inform your doctor about any history of kidney or liver problems, high potassium levels, or Addison's disease.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Avoid using Aldactone during pregnancy unless explicitly directed by your doctor. It may not be safe for breastfeeding mothers.
Drug Interactions: Notify your doctor about any other medications or supplements you are taking to prevent adverse interactions.
Potassium Supplements: Avoid taking potassium supplements or consuming high-potassium foods while on Aldactone, as it may lead to hyperkalemia (high potassium levels).
Driving and Machinery: This medication may cause dizziness. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery if you feel unsteady.
