Uses of Ashtol Infusion
- Acute renal failure
- Cerebral edema (accumulation of excessive fluid in the brain)
- Glaucoma
Benefits of Ashtol Infusion
In Acute renal failure
Ashtol Infusion is used to increase urine production in cases of kidney failure. This means it is also used to treat or prevent medical conditions that are caused by an increase in body fluids/water such as recent kidney failure called acute renal (kidney) failure. It is given as an injection by a doctor or nurse and should not be self-administered.
In Cerebral edema (accumulation of excessive fluid in the brain)
Symptoms of brain swelling (cerebral edema) include headache, dizziness, nausea, numbness or weakness, loss of coordination or balance, loss of the ability to see or speak, seizures (fits), memory loss, incontinence, or altered level of consciousness. Ashtol Infusion decreases brain volume by decreasing overall water content in the brain. This helps to reduce the accumulation of excessive fluid in the brain. It helps to relieve these symptoms effectively within a short duration of time and prevents further comoplications.
In Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, the health of which is vital for good vision. This damage is often caused by an abnormally high pressure in your eye. Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness for people over the age of 60 or older. Ashtol Infusion is used to reduce swelling and pressure inside the eye. This helps to prevent complications of glaucoma such as blindness and improves the vision.
Side effects of Ashtol Infusion
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How Ashtol Infusion works
