Description
Metoz 5mg Tablets contain Metolazone, a diuretic (water pill) used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and edema (fluid retention) associated with heart, liver, kidney, or lung disease. Metolazone works by helping the kidneys eliminate excess water and salt from the body, reducing swelling and lowering blood pressure.
Dosage/Directions:
The typical dosage for adults is one 5mg tablet taken once daily, preferably in the morning to avoid frequent urination at night. The exact dosage and duration of treatment should be determined by a healthcare professional based on the patient’s condition and response to therapy. It is important to take the medication at the same time each day and not to exceed the prescribed dosage.
Side Effects:
Common side effects include headache, dizziness, nausea, and blurred vision. Some patients may experience dry mouth, diarrhea, or joint pain. Rarely, severe side effects such as allergic reactions, chest pain, or significant changes in kidney function may occur. If any severe side effects are experienced, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider immediately.
