Frequently asked Questions about Meltor

Question over 5 years ago

Does Meltor cause kidney damage?

ravi udawat MBBS , General Physician

No, Meltor does not cause kidney damage, in fact, it helps in managing edema resulting from kidney disease, heart disease, and lung disease. In comparison to furosemide, Meltor has a longer duration of action and doesn't get accumulated in the renal failure.

Dr. Surender Kumar MBBS , General Physician

Question over 5 years ago

Can I discontinue Meltor on my own?

Dr. Vedprakash Verma MBBS, MD , Cardiology

No, it is not advisable that you discontinue taking Meltor on your own. Meltor is used for the treatment of edema and hypertension. It is possible that at the time of quitting Meltor you have a lot of fluid retention which can get detrimental to your health. Quitting Meltor abruptly may also spike your blood pressure which may predispose you to the risk of heart attack. Therefore, it is important that you follow your prescription completely and do not stop taking Meltor on your own, even if you feel better. 

Question almost 6 years ago

What is Meltor?

Dr. B. K. Agrawal MBBS, MD , Cardiology, General Physician, Internal Medicine

Meltor is the brand name for torsemide. It belongs to a class of drugs known as loop diuretics. It is available in the form of an injection and tablets. It is used for the management of edema associated with congestive heart failure. In low doses, it is also used to treat hypertension.

Question over 5 years ago

Can Meltor be used with lasix?

Dr. Uday Nath Sahoo MBBS , Internal Medicine

Yes, Meltor can be used with lasix (furosemide). Both are loop diuretics, however, furosemide has a shorter half-life than Meltor. The long-acting Meltor, when added to lasix, can produce better clinical outcomes. It is also advisable to pair Meltor with a potassium-sparing diuretic like spironolactone because while Meltor may lead to potassium loss, spironolactone will retain potassium in the body.
