Lasix
Lasix is a medication used to treat fluid retention and edema. It is also used to treat high blood pressure. Lasix is a loop diuretic (water pill) that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt, allowing the salt to be passed out in your urine. Lasix is used to treat fluid retention (edema) in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or a kidney disorder such as nephrotic syndrome. Lasix is also used to treat high blood pressure. The lowest GoodRx price for the most common version of furosemide is around .00, 67% off the average retail price of .33. Compare loop diuretics.
