furoshemid
Furosemide is a loop diuretic medication used to treat fluid buildup in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease, and kidney disease. It is also used to treat high blood pressure. Furosemide works by helping the kidneys remove excess salt and water from the body. This reduces the amount of fluid in the body, which can help to relieve symptoms such as swelling and shortness of breath. Furosemide is usually taken by mouth, but it can also be given intravenously. It is important to take furosemide exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Furosemide can cause side effects, including dehydration, dizziness, and electrolyte imbalances. If you experience any of these side effects, contact your doctor immediately. Furosemide is not suitable for everyone. It should not be used by people who are allergic to furosemide or sulfonamides, or by people who have severe kidney disease or anuria. Furosemide is a prescription medication and should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
