Lasix is used to treat high blood pressure and edema (fluid retention). High blood pressure is a dangerous—potentially fatal—condition in which the heart is met with too much resistance from blocked or narrowed arteries as it tries to pump blood and oxygen around your body. High blood pressure can lead to serious health issues, including heart attacks, heart failure, strokes, and many more complications when not treated. Nearly half of Americans have high blood pressure, and heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States.
Edema is the medical term for swelling caused by fluid trapped in the body’s tissue. This swelling is often a symptom, not a condition, caused by diverse medical problems, including inactivity, venous insufficiency, heart failure, kidney disease, and more. Edema commonly leads to swelling, difficulty with movement, and difficulty breathing. When left untreated, excess fluid in the body can increase blood pressure.
By lowering fluid buildup in the body, Lasix helps lower blood pressure. It should be noted that Lasix is prescribed along with a healthy diet and physical exercise to reduce blood pressure. Doctors do not use Lasix alone to treat high blood pressure.

References: 1. Diabetics (and their families) who take Lasix may be at increased risk for heart disease and stroke. 2. Information about the effects of Lasix on high blood pressure comes from a recent clinical trial that enrolled more than 5,000 individuals with high blood pressure. The researchers found that taking Lasix reduced the amount of high blood pressure that was actually caused by the condition, by 84% (95% confidence interval, 76 to 100%). 3. The most common adverse reactions of Lasix include diarrhea, dizziness, and nausea. A full list of side effects is not available. 4. Lasix can cause serious (rarely fatal) kidney failure (which usually requires dialysis) in patients with active liver disease. 5. Lasix is not effective for people with a history of heart disease or stroke. 6. Lasix can also lead to a condition known as potassium-sparing diuresis, which is sudden lowering of potassium levels in the blood. Potassium is a “salt and pepper” salt that is used to manage high blood pressure. 7. Due to the condition Lasix can lead to a condition known as hyperkalemia, which is a condition where the levels of potassium are too low. This condition can occur when the levels of potassium are low, or when the potassium levels are high, or in patients with conditions that can cause too much potassium loss. High blood potassium levels can cause the heart to be unable to pump enough blood and oxygen around its body. This can lead to serious health problems, including heart attacks and strokes.Sold and Supplied by Healthylife Pharmacy
