UREX-M (furosemide 20 mg):,Oedema: in adults, infants and children furosemide is indicated for the treatment of oedema associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, renal disease including nephrotic syndrome and other oedematous states amenable to diuretic therapy.,Hypertension: May also be used alone in the control of mild to moderate hypertension and in combination with other antihypertensive agents in the treatment of more severe cases. Studies have shown that furosemide is either less effective than or equally effective as thiazide diuretics in uncomplicated hypertension. However, in patients with severe renal function impairment, a diuretic and antihypertensive response to furosemide may be achieved while thiazides have no effect.
