Dr please, What happens to a patient with kidney failure if he takes a insufficient dose (20 mg instead of 125mg) ??

[@bobboscarato1313]

I was prescribed by my cardiologist Furosemide 20 mg. which I took in the morning; I had to go to the bathroom up to 5 times an hour for up to 8 hours. Worse side effect It affected my hearing and damage can be permanent. I stopped taking it after a few week and never took it again!

[@patriciaoreilly8907]

Self inflicted. Did you not ask or read the side effects 🤔?

[@bobboscarato1313]

@@patriciaoreilly8907 The doctor is supposed to inform me about side effects. He's my heart doctor; Need to visit his office in a few days; called their office to confirm and they don't answer the phone, sent them mail; tomorrow I have to drive to their office and will give them a piece of my mind. Finding a doctor can be taxing!

[@westfield90]

How long did you take the med before you noticed hearing issues?

[@bobboscarato1313]

@@westfield90 Two days; pretty scary! It can become permanent.-

[@b2bgood870]

How in the world can It cause hearing loss lol unless someone was already prone to it

My dad was diagnosed with CHF 5 months ago when I had to take him to the ER since he couldn’t breathe. They gave him a lasix intravenously and after two hours of filling the urinal multiple times he was fine and he felt absolutely normal. He has not been prescribed lasix. He just takes amilodipine, metoprolol and lisinopril. Now 5 months later he has developed a swollen foot and a little out of breath. We’ve given him lasix 20mg and potassium 20hcq for a day and while his breathlessness has resolved his foot is still quite swollen. Can we give it him lasix 20mg for a few days for the foot to resolve?

My getting this 20 mg 2 times a day. She is still coughing, dandelions can help her not coughing?

[@dayoolaitan5489]

Side effects of are many and should take out of counter.

[@rainej7013]

Do you think 360 mg is a high dose because that seems to be the only dose that helps me to be able to breathe and eat I can barely eat food because I cannot breathe. I think I am in the last stage possibly I hope somebody sees this and gives me an answer . My cardiologist is never available. She’s always on vacation. She will only give me 6. 40mg tablets. This is not enough for me because I cannot breathe. I need 360 mg which is 9 which is 40 mg per pill. I’m allergic to a lot of things and this is the only thing I can take. I tried different diuretics, but they made me bedridden. They took all the potassium out of my body no matter what I did. I had too many side effects. Can anybody answer this hopefully the doctor?

Lasix doesn't always work for me. Most times I use it I don't pee at all. Just a couple drops. I have to find something else like spironolactin to be able to pee.

[@dayoolaitan5489]

Why approve medicine that are not save for people to use ? Is too bad for pharmaceutical companies that produce killer drugs.
