What is Spironolactone?
Active Ingredients: Spironolactone
Spironolactone Tablets are a drug used to treat fluid buildup associated with high blood pressure and heart failure. This medication is also used to reduce swelling (edema) caused by certain conditions, which improves symptoms such as breathing problems. It is also used to treat conditions associated with aldosterone.
Spironolactone is classified as an aldosterone antagonist, which is also called a potassium-sparing diuretic or “water pill”. Spironolactone works by binding to mineralocorticoid receptors in the kidney to inhibit aldosterone's action. This reduces sodium reabsorption and increases sodium and water excretion, lowering blood volume and pressure. It also exhibits antiandrogenic effects by blocking androgen receptors and inhibiting androgen synthesis. This dual mechanism makes spironolactone effective in treating conditions like hypertension, heart failure, and edema, as well as disorders related to androgen excess such as hirsutism and acne.
