About Eptus-T 10 Kit

Eptus-T 10 Kit belongs to a class of medicine called 'diuretics' (water pills), primarily used to remove excess water from the body. It also maintains the bloodstream's potassium level and prevents hypertension (high blood pressure) due to Oedema (fluid retention). Oedema or fluid overload is associated with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lung) or heart failure (irregular heart pumping). Leg swelling is the main characteristic of Oedema, accompanied by shortness of breath, chest pain (angina), abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmia) and swelling in other hands or abdomen areas.

Eptus-T 10 Kit is a combination of medications containing Eplerenone and Torsemide, which are prescribed for the treatment of resistant Oedema (fluid overload) associated with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs), heart failure and hepatic cirrhosis (chronic liver damage). Eptus-T 10 Kit works by increasing the amount of urine passed out from the kidneys. It effectively reduces excess fluid levels in the body and treats Oedema (swelling) associated with heart, liver, kidney or lung disease. This reduces the heart's workload and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Thus, it also helps lower high blood pressure, reducing the chances of any future heart attack, stroke or angina (chest pain).

Take Eptus-T 10 Kit as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Eptus-T 10 Kit for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. In some cases, you may experience dehydration, electrolyte disturbances (calcium, magnesium, and sodium), constipation, increased uric acid and itching. Most of these side effects of Eptus-T 10 Kit do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Try not to stop taking Eptus-T 10 Kit of your own, as doing so may raise your blood pressure, thereby increasing the risk of getting a heart attack and stroke. Inform your doctor if you suffer from any kidney, liver or heart disease. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please tell your doctor so that the dosage of Eptus-T 10 Kit can be prescribed accordingly. Please tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines or are allergic to Eptus-T 10 Kit. Reducing the amount of table salt (sodium chloride) in your food often relieves the body's swelling.

Uses of Eptus-T 10 Kit

Oedema (fluid overload), Hypertension

Directions for Use

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Keep your weight under control with a BMI of 19.5-24.9.
  • Do regular physical activity or exercise for at least 150 minutes per week, or about 30 minutes most days of the week. Doing this can help you lower your raised blood pressure by about 5 mm of Hg.
  • Opt for a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, veggies and low-fat dairy products.
  • Limit sodium chloride (table salt) intake in your daily diet to 2300 mg per day or less than 1500 mg is ideal for most adults.
  • If you take alcohol, only one serving for women and two servings for men is advisable.
  • Quitting smoking is the best strategy to lower the risk of heart disease.
  • Avoid chronic stress, as it can raise your blood pressure. Try to enjoy and spend time with your loved ones to cope with stress and practice mindfulness techniques.
  • Monitor your blood pressure daily, and if there is too much fluctuation, immediately contact your doctor.
  • Try to include heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids containing food and drinks in your daily diet. You can also use low-fat cooking oil like olive oil, soybean oil, canola oil and coconut oil to lower your elevated blood pressure.

This reduces the heart's workload and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Thus, it also helps lower high blood pressure, reducing the chances of any future heart attack, stroke or angina (chest pain).

Oedema, also known as dropsy, is the medical term for fluid retention in the body. The build-up of fluid causes affected tissue to become swollen. The swelling can occur in one particular part of the body – for example, due to an injury – or it can be more general. This is usually the case with Oedema due to certain health conditions, such as heart failure or kidney failure. If it does not subside, please consult your doctor immediately.

The main side effect of Eptus-T 10 Kit is peeing (urination) more often than usual. Most people need to pee about 30 minutes after taking Eptus-T 10 Kit and again within a few hours. Do not take Eptus-T 10 Kit before going to bed, or you may have to frequently wake up in the night to go for urination.

Yes, Eptus-T 10 Kit is known to cause dehydration (excessive loss of fluids). The patient may experience dry mouth, decreased urine output, excessive thirst, and hypotension (decreased blood pressure). So, please increase the intake of fluids to avoid excessive dehydration.

Yes, Eptus-T 10 Kit can cause increased potassium levels (hyperkalemia), especially in patients with kidney problems or if you are taking potassium supplements along with Eptus-T 10 Kit. Please monitor your electrolyte level regularly to avoid increasing blood potassium levels.

Yes, Eptus-T 10 Kit may occasionally cause dizziness due to orthostatic hypotension (sudden drop in blood pressure on standing from lying position) or passing out. To lower the chance of feeling dizzy or passing out, rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Oedema: Oedema or fluid overload is associated with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lung) or heart failure (irregular heart pumping). The main characteristics of Oedema are leg swelling,  shortness of breath, chest pain (angina), abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmia) and swelling in other hands or abdomen areas.

Hypertension: Blood pressure measures our heart's force to pump blood to all body parts. Hypertension is a chronic condition when blood pressure is too high. This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels), decreasing the blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Raised blood pressure can cause chest pain (angina) and heart attack (when the blood supply to the heart is blocked). High blood pressure also causes brain damage (stroke) and kidney failure. High blood pressure can be diagnosed with the help of a blood pressure monitor. Systolic pressure is the pressure with which the heart pumps blood out. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is when your heart is at the resting stage between heartbeats. If your blood pressure is 140/90 mm of Hg, the systolic pressure is 140 mm, and the diastolic pressure is 90 mm. Ideal blood pressure should be between 90/60 mm of Hg and 120/80 mm of Hg.
