1. WHAT FRUMIL TABLETS ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR
What Frumil Tablets are
The name of your medicine is Frumil 40mg/5mg Tablets (called Frumil Tablets throughout this leaflet). Frumil Tablets contain two different medicines called: furosemide and amiloride hydrochloride.
Both belong to a group of medicines called diuretics (water tablets). What Frumil Tablets are used for
Frumil Tablets can be used to stop the build up of extra water in your body. This extra water can cause swollen ankles, shortness of breath and feeling more tired than usual.
How Frumil Tablets work
Frumil Tablets work by helping you to pass more water (urine) than you usually do. If the extra water in your body is not removed, it can put extra strain on the heart, blood vessels, lungs, kidneys or liver.
