Lasix (furosemide) is a loop diuretic (water pill) that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt. This allows the salt to instead be passed in your urine. Lasix is used to treat fluid retention (edema) in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or a kidney disorder such as nephrotic syndrome. Lasix is also used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
Lasix is the brand name of furosemide, a prescription drug used to eliminate extra water and salt in people who have problems with fluid retention. Swelling and fluid retention - also known as edema - can be caused by congestive heart failure, liver or kidney disease, as well as other conditions. Lasix is also used on its own or together with other drugs to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lasix is part of a group of drugs known as loop diuretics or water pills, which reduce the amount of water in the body by increasing the flow of urine.
