Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's

Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's is used to treat hyponatremia (low levels of sodium) in patients with heart failure, liver disease and hormonal imbalances such as Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH). Additionally, Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's is also used to treat autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).
 
Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's contains ‘tolvaptan’ that works by blocking the effect of vasopressin, resulting in decreased water reabsorption, a net increase in free water excretion (aquaresis) and an increase in serum sodium concentrations. This decrease in free water is not associated with an increased excretion of sodium or potassium ions; the increase in serum sodium concentration is solely a result of increased urine production.
 
You are advised to take Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as dizziness, headache, dry mouth, fatigue, diarrhoea, thirst and increased urge to urinate. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medicines called vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist. Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's is used to treat hyponatremia (low levels of sodium) in patients with heart failure, liver disease and hormonal imbalances such as Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH). Besides this, Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's is also used to treat autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's works by blocking the effect of vasopressin, a hormone which is involved in the formation of cysts in ADPKD patients. By blocking the effect of vasopressin, Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's slows down the development of cysts in kidneys and reduces the symptoms of the disease. Tolvaheal 15 mg Tablet 10's antagonises the effect of vasopressin; this results in an increase in free water clearance and decreases urine osmolality due to increased urinary excretion, thereby increasing serum sodium concentrations.
