| Add Bumex review My husband was prescribed Bumex 8 weeks ago to address edema. After 6 days on this drug he began having convulsive-like tremors at night. These went on all night and neither of us got any sleep for several nights. We experimented by having him skip the drug one morning. No shakes that night. He tried the drug again the next morning. Tremors that night, and so on. He has not taken it for seven days now and finally has had 2 good nights in a row. The cardiologist has switched him to another diuretic, but we are waiting a couple more days to start it. i took this medicine one time and woke up my muscle were cramping. my body was hurting badly | Add Furosemide review wrists still swollen,concerned about dry cough and subsequent hoarse voice. was having water retention in my ankels and legs, didnt really help that much, 40mg/1 adaygoing back to the doctor I have rheumatoid arthritis and sometimes when things are bad I retian fluid.
