Description

Application

Torsemide has been used as an inhibitor of Na⁺ Cl^- co-transporter in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants¹.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Torsemide functions in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle and enhances the excretion of sodium, chloride and water from the luminal side of the cells. Furthermore, torsemide can treat oedematous conditions that are associated with diseases such as liver cirrhosis, kidney disorders and chronic congestive heart failure².

Torsemide is a loop diuretic and inhibitor of the Na⁺/K⁺/2Cl^- carrier system.

Torsemide is a loop diuretic of the pyridine-sulfonylurea class with antialdosteronergic properties and inhibitor of the Na⁺/K⁺/2Cl^- carrier system.
