Furosemide Solution

Generic Name: Furosemide Oral Solution (fyoo-ROE-seh-mide)
Brand Name: Generic only. No brands available.

Furosemide Solution is used for:

Treating high blood pressure or water retention (swelling) associated with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or kidney disease. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Furosemide Solution is a loop diuretic. Loop diuretics make the kidneys eliminate larger amounts of electrolytes (especially sodium and potassium salts) and water than normal (diuretic effect). Loop diuretics are useful for treating many conditions in which salt and water retention (eg, edema, swelling) are a problem.

Do NOT use Furosemide Solution if:

you are allergic to any ingredient in Furosemide Solution
you are unable to urinate
you are taking ethacrynic acid, disulfiram, fluorouracil, or metronidazole

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
