Torsemide is categorized as a loop diuretic. Torsemide functions by eliminating larger amounts of electrolytes and thereby reducing the water content in your body.

Despite your best attempts at remembering, if you still miss out on a dose, then take it as soon as you remember about it. But keep in mind that you will have to adjust your next dose by spacing it out by 4 to 5 hours.
