Planep-T 20 Kit is a combination of two medicines: Eplerenone and Torasemide. Eplerenone and torasemide. They act on different parts of your kidney to remove extra water and certain electrolytes while maintaining the potassium balance in your body.
Eplerenone selectively binds to the mineralocorticoid receptor, thereby blocking the binding of aldosterone and thus inhibiting sodium reabsorption and other deleterious aldosterone-mediated mechanisms (3). Eplerenone is metabolized via the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 pathway.Torsemide causes excretion of sodium chloride and water by inhibiting sodium and chloride reabsorption in the ascending loop of Henle and distal collecting tubule. The effect is caused by blocking the chloride-binding site of the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransport mechanism.
