Furosemide is a diuretic...it makes you urinate. This does not necessarily "clean out the system". Careful medical supervision is required in the administration of this drug. Inproper use can cause profound diuresis with water and electrolyte depletion.
Yes, taking Lasix can increase the risk of low potassium levels in the body. This is because Lasix can cause the body to excrete more potassium through urine. It is important to monitor potassium levels and consult with a healthcare provider for appropriate management.

Yes, sometimes when you take a diuretic you need to take potassium to ensure the proper level. However, the doctor will probably do regular blood work to check the potassium levels.
