Experiences with

Diuretic

Is prednisone diuretic? Going to loo 5 to 6 times at night!

It would seem that this diuretic can potentially affect potassium and sodium levels which can become low over time. I have had this problem and am to be taken off it. Do all diuretics do this I wonder ? Any useful feedback appreciated

I was diagnosed with mild heart failure, my medication dosages were adjusted and a diuretic added and it would appear I am no longer am in heart failure at this time. Hope this helps.

I have been put on Metolazone (Xaqua). I just wondered if anyone else have tried it and how they got on.

I have pretty severe edema in feet and occasionally legs.Is there a diuretic that does not trigger rls? I have tried Bumex and Metolazone. Had very bad rls soon after taking each one. I am on low dose Ropinirole -.9mg . It didn't even calm it. Appreciate any input.

Currently my drug regime is not controlling my rates, resting rate should be 60 as set by my pacemaker but for the past 6 days it has been erratic, also finding that the diuretic I take is not dealing efficiently with my fluid overload.

We understand that co-amilofruse is a diuretic and will obviously cause him to urinate frequently. However, this is continuing all day and night, which wasn’t the case with furosemide, which tapered off after taking the tablet in the morning. Has anyone any advice/experience to offer?

My cardiologist has recently put me on two types of diuretic Furosemide 20mg and Spironolactone 25mg She has also got rid of Wafarin which I have been taking for 10 years and put me on Apexiban and changed simvistatin to Lipitor 40mg I also take Adizem and Ramipril Whilst these seem to have deal

My GP has now prescribed a Loop diuretic furosemide (40mg tablet) plus a potassium supplement - I have not started it yet, as I'm recovering from a tummy bug, and the last thing I needed was a diuretic.!!

I also take a diuretic. However my BP raised to averages of 137/85 with no change to diet or exercise. Going back to GP as we recognised when we switched that we needed to monitor. Anyone with experience on this matter?

Hello, I was taking the diuretic Spironolactone however it caused hearing loss. I explained to my doctor who changed my medication to Furosemide but results are the same. anyone aware of an alternative diuretic that does not effect hearing?

I have severe RLS and severe PLMD I take the following meds; Losec (omeprazole) 10mg ( for GERD ) , Losartan 100mg ( for high blood pressure) Spironolactone 50mg ( for diuretic and heart) ) Levothyroxine 75mg for thyroid and Magnesium 375mg.

problems, including high HR for some 4 1/2 years that the GP is trying to solve ( every other specialist signing me off despite diagnosed ‘postural hypotension’ with hypertension at rest) …his recent attempt has been to reduce levo.from 100 to 75 ( cont.with T3 5 x3) and reintroduce a hypertensive diuretic

A lot of fluid from she got went into her lungs yesterday, they tortured her with a tube trying to fix it and then gave her a diuretic.

The doxazosin is a diuretic My BP is still irregular, high in am low pm, always has been for at least 10 years. I am 80 years old, female, very active, until taking the spironolactone, and elperotone.

On Friday after labs, kidney function was better so they added a diuretic for the edema and a preventative med for pneumonia. Overall things are progressing well. There are benchmarks to achieve but I'm looking forward to the future.

He has fluid in his tummy consultant prescribed an extra diuretic which he hasn't been taking as prescribed. My son said when he took him to the pub that someone commented on his tummy asking who ate all the pies. This is not looking good is it?

The NHS finally saw me match this year the cardiologist told me my heart was damaged and he put me on a diuretic furosemide to told me he would inform the cardiologist I saw privately.

She also put me on diuretic, hoping my swelling will go away. She scheduled an ultrasound of my legs and ankles. Thanks for all your support! Hugs! Sharon
