Ademin Indication
For the treatment of edema associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, and the nephrotic syndrome; also in steroid-induced edema, idiopathic edema, and edema due to secondary hyperaldosteronism.
Ademin Pharmacology
Triamterene, a relatively weak, potassium-sparing distal tubule diuretic and antihypertensive, is used in the management of hypokalemia. Triamterene is similar in action to amiloride but, unlike amiloride, increases the urinary excretion of magnesium.
Ademin Absorption
Rapidly absorbed, with somewhat less than 50% of the oral dose reaching the urine.
Ademin side effects and Toxicity
