Where to Buy Lasix Online — telemedicine evaluation & patient education
Introduction
Lasix (furosemide) is a loop diuretic used to treat edema, heart failure, kidney disease, liver cirrhosis, and hypertension. It works by increasing urine output and reducing excess fluid.
Mechanism of Action
Lasix blocks sodium and chloride reabsorption in the loop of Henle, causing water to follow these electrolytes into urine. This reduces swelling, eases breathing in heart failure, and lowers blood pressure.
Dosage
Patients may take 20–80 mg once or twice daily. Severe edema may require higher doses. Potassium supplementation is often needed.
Side Effects
Common effects include dehydration, low potassium, dizziness, muscle cramps, and increased urination. Lasix must be used carefully in individuals with kidney disease.
Benefits
Lasix rapidly relieves swelling in the legs, lungs, and abdomen. It is lifesaving in acute heart failure.
Monitoring
Regular blood tests for electrolytes and kidney function are essential. Patients should avoid taking Lasix late in the evening to prevent nighttime urination.
