Fincor Tablet contains Finerenone 20 mg, a selective, non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) designed for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Finerenone blocks the harmful effects of aldosterone on the kidneys and cardiovascular system, reducing inflammation and fibrosis. By slowing the progression of kidney damage and lowering the risk of cardiovascular events, Fincor 20 mg offers a targeted approach to managing high-risk CKD patients.
