UpCard® Tablets for Dogs (Blue) 3mg

UpCard 3 mg is a veterinary prescription medication used in dogs for the treatment of clinical signs associated with congestive heart failure, such as oedema and effusion. The active ingredient is torasemide, a potent loop diuretic that helps reduce fluid buildup by promoting the excretion of excess water and salt through urine. This helps relieve pressure on the heart and lungs, improving the dog’s breathing and overall comfort.
