Furosemide

You should take Furosemide exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The usual starting dose for adults is 20-80 mg per day, but your doctor may adjust this based on your specific condition. Remember to take it in the morning to avoid frequent trips to the bathroom at night. Do not exceed the recommended dose unless instructed by your doctor. If you notice any unusual symptoms or if your condition worsens, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

Each Furosemide tablet contains 40 mg of furosemide as the active ingredient. The excipients include lactose, maize starch, colloidal anhydrous silica, and magnesium stearate.

Common side effects of Furosemide may include dehydration, low blood pressure, electrolyte imbalances, and dizziness. Serious side effects that require immediate medical attention include severe allergic reactions, hearing loss, and muscle cramps.

Do not take Furosemide if you are allergic to furosemide or any of the other ingredients. Inform your doctor about any medical conditions you have, especially if you have kidney problems, liver disease, diabetes, or gout. Avoid using Furosemide if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless advised by your doctor. It is important to monitor your electrolyte levels regularly while taking this medication. If you experience symptoms like irregular heartbeat or muscle weakness, seek medical help promptly.
