Furosemide is a loop diuretic that inhibits the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter in the ascending thick loop of Henle. It is often called high-ceiling diuretics because it is more effective than other diuretics. Furosemide decreases the sodium, chloride, and potassium reabsorption from the tubule. Subsequently, these ions are retained in the renal tubule and presented to the distal nephron. Dilute urine is produced because water is retained in the tubule when it reaches the distal tubule. In addition, there is an associated urine loss of Mg++ and Ca++. An additional mechanism of action is via prostag
In small animals, furosemide is the drug of choice to treat conditions that cause edema: pulmonary edema, liver disease, heart disease, and vascular disease. It increases urine production and can be used to treat acute renal failure. In addition, furosemide will increase K+ and Ca++ excretion and is used to treat hyperkalemia and hypercalcemia. In horses, furosemide has been used to treat edema and syndromes associated with congestion. The most common use in horses is pretreatment prior to racing. Although it appears to produce faster racing times, the mechanism is unclear. It may decrease bod
