AquaBan – Water Retention Tablets

What is Aqua-Ban?

Aqua-Ban is a diuretic (water pill). It works by increasing urination.

Before taking this medicine

You should not use Aqua-Ban if you are allergic to it, or if you are unable to urinate.

Ask a doctor or pharmacist if it is safe for you to use Aqua-Ban if you have other medical conditions, especially:

How should I take Aqua-Ban?
