Product Benefits
| Core Benefit | Mechanism |
| Potassium-Sparing Diuresis | Increases the excretion of sodium and water in the urine (diuresis) without causing significant potassium loss, thus preventing hypokalemia (low potassium). |
| Blocks Aldosterone | Directly counters the harmful effects of excess aldosterone in conditions like heart failure and cirrhosis, which helps reduce fluid retention and improve cardiovascular outcomes. |
| Cardiovascular Protection | At lower doses (like $25\text{mg}$), it is crucial for reducing morbidity and mortality in patients with severe chronic heart failure. |
| Reduces Edema/Ascites | Highly effective in treating severe fluid retention (edema), particularly the abdominal fluid build-up (ascites) often seen in patients with liver cirrhosis. |
