Demadex (active ingredient: torsemide) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Edema: Demadex is used for the treatment of edema (fluid retention) associated with congestive heart failure, renal disease, and hepatic disease.
  2. Hypertension: It is indicated for the management of hypertension (high blood pressure) alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents.
  3. Chronic Renal Failure: Demadex is used in the management of edema associated with chronic renal failure.
  4. Ascites: It is indicated for the treatment of ascites due to cirrhosis of the liver.

Demadex belongs to a class of medications known as loop diuretics, which work by increasing the excretion of water and electrolytes through the kidneys, thereby reducing fluid accumulation in the body.

Demadex comes in tablet form and should be taken orally as directed by your doctor, with or without food, usually once daily. Avoid taking this medication within 4 hours of your bedtime to prevent having to get up to urinate. The dosage of Demadex that you should take will depend on your medical condition and how you respond to treatment. Do not alter your dosage or take the medication more often than directed by your doctor.

To ensure that Demadex is most effective, it should be taken regularly at the same time each day, as directed by your doctor. Continue taking this medication, as most people with high blood pressure do not have symptoms. The full blood pressure-lowering effect of Demadex may take 4-6 weeks to be observed, and sometimes up to 12 weeks. Do not stop taking Demadex without first consulting your doctor.

  • The recommended dosages of Demadex (Torsemide) for Edema due to heart or kidney disease are typically 10 to 20 mg by mouth once daily, with the dose adjusted based on the response to medication. The maximum recommended dose is 200 mg by mouth once daily.
  • For edema due to liver disease, the typical starting dose is 5 to 10 mg by mouth once daily, with a maximum dose of 40 mg by mouth once daily.
  • For high blood pressure, the typical starting dose is 5 mg by mouth once daily, with the dose adjusted after 4-6 weeks based on the response to medication. The maximum recommended dose is 10 mg by mouth once daily. It is recommended to take Demadex at least 1 hour before or 4-6 hours after certain cholesterol-lowering medications.
