Furosemide vs Indapamide

Furosemide

Indapamide

Furosemide is used to reduce extra fluid in the body (edema) caused by conditions such as heart failure, liver disease, and kidney disease. This can lessen symptoms such as shortness of breath and swelling in your arms, legs, and abdomen.

This medication is used to treat high blood pressure. Indapamide is also used to reduce extra salt and fluid in the body (edema) caused by a certain heart problem (congestive heart failure). Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Decreasing extra salt and fluid in the body helps to decrease swelling and breathing problems from congestive heart failure and increases your ability to exercise. Indapamide is a "water pill" (diuretic) that increases the amount of urine you make. Getting rid of extra water and salt may help to relax the blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily. These effects help to lower blood pressure and decrease the amount of work the heart must do to pump blood.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and sometimes when things are bad I retian fluid. My doctor gave me 40 mg of furosemide. It works well but keeps me running to the restroom. LOL! Which, of course, is the whole point.

With having a sulfa allergy, i wasn't initially even started on any diuretics. This one was added when my bp was remaining high despite maxing out on other meds. With only 10 pound weight loss and adding this med, i've eliminated and reduced other meds. i am very pleased with the addition of this drug. it has helped me reduce/eliminate others.
