Furosemide is primarily used as a diuretic (commonly referred to as a "water pill") to treat various medical conditions related to fluid retention and high blood pressure. Its uses include: 1. Edema (Fluid Retention) Furosemide is commonly prescribed to reduce fluid buildup caused by conditions such as: Heart failure: It helps reduce excess fluid in the body, alleviating symptoms like swelling and shortness of breath. Chronic kidney disease (CKD): Used to manage fluid retention, especially in patients with declining kidney function. Liver disease: For example, cirrhosis of the liver can cause fluid retention (ascites), which Furosemide helps manage. Nephrotic syndrome: A kidney disorder that results in fluid retention. 2. Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) Furosemide is used in treating hypertension (high blood pressure), especially in patients who have not responded to other medications. It helps lower blood pressure by reducing the fluid volume in the body, thus decreasing the workload on the heart and blood vessels. 3. Acute Pulmonary Edema Furosemide is often used in emergency settings to treat acute pulmonary edema, a condition where excess fluid accumulates in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe. This condition is commonly associated with heart failure. 4. Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) In people with congestive heart failure, Furosemide is used to manage fluid retention in the body. By promoting diuresis (increased urine production), it helps reduce the symptoms of heart failure, such as swelling (edema) in the legs and shortness of breath. 5. Hypercalcemia (High Blood Calcium Levels) Furosemide can be used to treat hypercalcemia (elevated calcium levels in the blood), often in combination with other treatments like saline infusion.
