Description
Indications
Furosemide is an effective medication for reducing excessive fluid accumulation (edema) in the body caused by heart failure, liver disease, and kidney disease. It can alleviate symptoms such as shortness of breath and swelling in various parts of the body such as the arms, legs, and abdomen. This medication also functions as a diuretic, commonly referred to as a “water pill,” that increases urine production. This mechanism aids the body in eliminating excess water and salt, leading to a reduction in fluid accumulation.
Uses and Dosage
Furosemide is available in both tablet and liquid form for oral administration. It is typically taken once or twice daily.
The frequency of administration may vary depending on the condition being treated. When used to manage hypertension, take
furosemide at consistent intervals every day.
Follow the instructions indicated on the prescription label carefully and to seek clarification from a healthcare professional if any part is not understood.
Furosemide helps in controlling high blood pressure and edema, but it does not provide a cure for these conditions.
Continue taking furosemide even if symptoms improve. Discontinuing the medication should only be done after consultation with a healthcare provider.

Caution
- Prior to taking furosemide, inform your healthcare provider or pharmacist of any allergies you may have, including an allergy to this medication or any other substances.
- Provide a comprehensive medical history to your healthcare provider or pharmacist, with particular emphasis on prior or current kidney problems, liver problems, difficulty in urination, gout, or lupus.
- Individuals with diabetes should be aware that furosemide may affect their blood sugar levels. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels as directed by a healthcare provider is recommended, and any changes or variations in the results should be promptly reported to the doctor. Adjustments to the diabetes medication regimen, exercise program, or diet may be necessary.
- Furosemide may also cause a decrease in potassium levels in the blood. In such cases, a healthcare provider may recommend incorporating potassium-rich foods in the diet or prescribing potassium supplements to prevent further potassium loss.
- Furosemide may increase sensitivity to sunlight. Limit exposure to direct sunlight and to avoid tanning booths, sunlamps, and other sources of artificial UV light. Using sunblock and protective clothing while outdoors is recommended. If you experience sunburn, skin blisters, or redness, seek medical attention immediately.
- Furosemide may cause dizziness or blurred vision. The use of alcohol or marijuana can further worsen these effects. Do not engage in activities that require alertness, such as driving or operating machinery, until it is deemed safe to do so.
- Furosemide may pass into breast milk and may impact milk production. Consult a healthcare provider before breastfeeding.
