i take ritalin 40 mg and zzanaxx and i thought i was taking 2 1mg zzanaxx's but i accidently took 2 40 mg ic furosemide which are my husbands will i be ok tonight ? ## I'm not a doctor, but I can assume that you may feel the effects (and possibly side effects) of the furosemide until it wears off, but you 'should' be fine since you don't accidentally do this on a regular basis. It's been two days since you posted this, so I'm guessing that you're over any symptoms that the drug may have caused you. 80mg of furosemide is a high dose, but if you made it threw the day ok then I personally wouldn't stay worried. If for some reason you still notice any effects from it, I would highly recommend that you go to your doctor and let him know what happened. He o...

I have a second degree burn and, although it doesnt hurt anymore my skin is pulled tight and is very dry. Could i apply this to my hand to replenish my skin in the burned areas? ## From what I could gather, Mometasone furoate cream USP 0.1% is a medium potency corticosteroid, indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. Ref: dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?id=19691 Dermatoses is a general term used to describe any skin defect or lesion on the skin. So in that sense, it should be of some help to your skin. I would also suggest rubbing cucumber on the affected area for additional healing benefits. I believe the more fresh fruit and vegetables we eat, the easier it is for our skin and other organs to heal thems...

What are the side effects of Furosemide? ## As with many diuretics, Furosemide can cause dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, including loss of potassium, calcium, sodium, and magnesium. It is especially important to prevent potassium loss. Excessive use of Furosemide will most likely lead to a metabolic alkalosis due to hypochloremia and hypokalemia. It should be used with caution in horses with liver problems or electrolyte abnormalities. Overdose may lead to dehydration, change in drinking patterns and urination, seizures, GI problems, kidney damage, lethargy, collapse, and coma.

I accidentally took another two furosemide just three hours after my evening dose. Should I be ok? ## Hello, Rick! How are you? What dosage do you take? Did you experience any adverse effects? Taking too much could cause dehydration and hypotension, according to FDA reports, so you do need to be careful not to take more than your doctor has prescribed. Are you on any other medications?

I take furosomide and after wards I feel exhausted. Do I need to be taking potchloride with it for my potassium. ## Too much potassium is just as dangerous as not enough, so you shouldn't add it, unless it's been shown that you're low in it, through a blood test. Learn more Furosemide details here. Furosemide is a loop diuretic that removes fluid from the body, so there are several reasons you may experience fatigue, other than being low in potassium. One reason may be just a normal side effect of the medication, a second possibility is that it is making you dehydrated. How much fluid do you take in each day? Whenever you're on a diuretic, unless your doctor instructs you otherwise, you should always make sure to drink at least 64oz.

Does anyone know does this medication works for swollen feet and ankles? ## It helps me very much. ## I have been taking Furosemide for a couple of years now and it definately helps with swollen feet and ankles. I take 40mg twice a day. I have never had any problems taking this medicine. ## My daughter has been prescribed Furosdmide 20mg and Diamox 500 mg for idiopathic intracranial hypertension. She has been on them 7 days and so far has not had increased urination. Has anybody who has been on these drugs know how long it usually takes for this to kick in?
