Furosemide is a type of medicine that can be used to reduce the buildup of fluid in the body (edema) caused by conditions such as heart failure, liver disease, and kidney disease. This medicine will cause you to urinate more, thus helping get rid of excess water and salt from your body.
This medicine can also help reduce symptoms such as shortness of breath and swelling in your arms, legs, and stomach. Additionally, it can also be used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
