high\u00a0blood pressure, and swelling (\u00a0edema\u00a0) and as a preventive treatment for\u00a0kidney stones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salure&#8217;s blood pressure-lowering effect is probably due to certain small blood vessels dilating.\u00a0The\u00a0diuretic\u00a0effect is due to the influence of the kidney which causes fluid to leave the body.\u00a0Salures in some cases prevents the formation of\u00a0kidney stones\u00a0by reducing the calcium content in the urine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bendroflumethiazide contained in Salures may also be approved for the treatment of other conditions not
