Lozol General Information
Lozol is a diuretic (water pill).
Lozol is indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure. Lozol also reduces swelling (edema) and fluid retention caused by congestive heart failure.
Lozol works by preventing the kidney from reabsorbing (retaining in the body) salt and water that is destined to be eliminated in the urine. This results in increased urine output (diuresis).
Lozol also reduces the salt in the smooth muscle of the walls of blood vessels. The salt ultimately is eliminated in the urine. The loss of salt from the muscle causes the muscle to relax, and the relaxation of the vessels results in reduced blood pressure.
