WHAT CENTYL
® K IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Centyl K contains two different types of active substances. One is
called bendroflumethiazide, it is a
diuretic (water tablet). The other active substance is called
potassium chloride. It is a potassium
supplement. The two medicines work at the same time in different ways.
Centyl K works by removing any excess water from your body. It will
make you go to the toilet more.
This means you will also lose potassium from your body. The potassium
chloride in Centyl K
is a
supplement to replace some of the potassium you may lose.
Centyl K is used to treat:
• Oedema which occurs as a result of heart, kidney or liver
problems. Oedema means that there is too
much water in your body. Oedema can cause symptoms such as swollen
ankles or trouble breathing.
• High blood pressure (hypertension). Your doctor may also decide to
give you other blood pressure
lowering medicines as well as this medicine.
