Torsemide is a thiazide-like diuretic that works by inhibiting the sodium-chloride cotransporter in the distal convoluted tubule of the kidneys, leading to increased urine production and reduced fluid volume. Spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic that works by antagonizing the mineralocorticoid receptor, leading to increased sodium excretion and reduced potassium loss.
