Furosemide acts on the ascending limb of the loop of Henle in the nephrons of the kidneys. It binds to the chloride channel of the sodium-potassium-chloride co-transporter system, which results in the excretion of sodium, water, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. By increasing the amount of urine produced, Furosemide alleviates the symptoms associated with fluid retention.

Description

Furosemide is a powerful diuretic medication commonly used to reduce excess fluid in the body caused by conditions such as heart failure, kidney disease, and cirrhosis of the liver. By promoting the production of urine, it helps to alleviate the symptoms of fluid overload, such as shortness of breath and swelling in the limbs (edema). Furosemide is part of the loop diuretic class, which works on the loop of Henle in the kidney to inhibit the reabsorption of sodium and chloride.
