What causes the ankles to swell so much and I feel like my chest, is jiggling with fluid ## Have you consulted a doctor? There are several medical conditions that can cause fluid retention, such as high blood pressure and/or a very high sodium intake. If you are suffering from Ascites, which is fluid in the peritoneal cavity, it is very important to see a doctor, because this could potentially lead to congestive heart failure. Torsemide is a LOOP diuretic, that is used to help reduce the amount of fluid in the body. It may cause side effects, such as: nausea, dizziness, stomach pain and dehydration. Learn more:

Would like to know if you get leg cramps following taking Torsimide, Also was told that Fluid pills, namely Lasix is dangerous when taken with blood pressure meds,(Enalaprel)... Would appreciate any infor. Thanks ## There are dangers associated with combining them, but they happen very rarely and diuretics are often combined with blood pressure medications, the dangers are most often associated with people that have severe, active cardiac conditions, such as congestive heart failure.

I'm prescribed Myrbetriq 1x daily at noon + Torisamide 2x weekly, when needed for water retention. When I use the Torisamide, I lose the effects at night of the Myrbetriq due to less sleep (getting up every two hours to use the bathroom). This goes on for at least three days or more. Can anything be done? It's defeating the purpose of the procedure "urlift". ## Well, the Torsemide is used to help remove excess fluid from the body, so yes, it is normal that it will make your urinate more, that is just one of its normal side effects, along with nausea, dizziness, headache, dehydration, and hypotension. Generally, it is not advised to take it with a medication like Myrbetriq, since you already have frequent urination issues. How often do you experience fluid retention that ...

wh 7129 oblong and 93 on the other side ## TORSEMIDE 20mg (Demadex®) is a diuretic (water or fluid pill). Diuretics increase the amount of urine passed, which causes the body to lose water and salt. Torsemide helps to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It is not a cure. It also reduces the swelling and water retention caused by various medical conditions, such as heart, liver, or kidney disease. Generic torsemide injections are not yet available. ## my mom is diabetic ,eiyher her metformin orcalcium is exiting her body whole what possible cause could there be/
