Lasix and furosemide are two different medications. One is a prescription water pill and the other is potassium. On a typical drug screen, no. But if its a specific screen where EVERYTHING is looked at, then yes it will show. However, neither are illegal.
is it ok to combine lasix with torsemide
I'm trying to find this answer as well, as I just overdosed on canine lasix. Seriously. Vertigo, can't poop, extreme muscle aches. I ran out of Losol and the dog is dead, so I figured "what the hell"
The drug Lasix also known as Furosemide is used to treat high blood pressure. One can get a prescription for Lasix by making an appointment with their doctor.
Lasix is a drug used with conditions causing a person to retain water in the body (such as congestive heart failure). It's also used to treat high blood pressure. This class of drugs are called diuretics and sometimes referred to colloquially as water pills.
Loop diuretics, such as bumetanide (Bumex) and furosemide (Lasix), get their name from the loop-shaped part of the kidneys where they have their effect.
my dog has been on percortin for about 7 years now she has developed congested heart failure and was prescribed furosemide I see it makes her heart bet faster and breathe harder. Is there an an alternative to the furosemide?
Yes, Lasix ( furosemide) does contain the compound sulfonamide in its molecular structure, so it has sulfa in it; however, it is usually considered to be a drug related to the sulfa drugs rather than a true sulfa drug. People who are allergic to sulfa may have a allergice reaction to Lasix but the chance is much smaller than to a true sulfa drug like an antibiotic in that family.
No. It is the generic brand of Lasix. This is given to patients so they will not retain water. Most people prescribed this are elderly with heart problems.
Lasix (Furosemide) is a diuretic drug that induce urination to decrease the body fluid volume, so the blood pressure will decrease. Therefore, it will affect the Urinary Tract System (UTS), and the Cardio-vascular System (CVS)
