치료 징후:

Furosemide tablets are indicated in adults and pediatric patients for the treatment of edema associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, and renal disease, including the nephrotic syndrome. Furosemide tablets are particularly useful when an agent with greater diuretic potential is desired. Oral furosemide may be used in adults for the treatment of hypertension alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents. Hypertensive patients who cannot be adequately controlled with thiazides will probably also not be adequately controlled with furosemide alone. Furosemide tablets are contraindicated in patients with anuria and in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to furosemide.

DESCRIPTION
Furosemide is a diuretic which is an anthranilic acid derivative.
Furosemide Tablets for
oral administration contain furosemide as the active ingredient and
the following inactive
ingredients: corn starch NF, lactose monohydrate NF, magnesium
stearate NF,
pregelatinized starch NF, and talc USP. Chemically, it is
4-chloro-N-furfuryl-5-
sulfamoylanthranilic acid. Furosemide is available as white-off white

water, sparingly soluble in
alcohol, freely soluble in dilute alkali solutions and insoluble in
dilute acids.
The structural formula is as follows:
Tested by USP Dissolution Test 1.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Investigations into the mode of action of furosemide have utilized
micropuncture studies
in rats, stop flow experiments in dogs and various clearance studies
in both humans
and experimental animals. It has been demonstrated that furosemide
inhibits primarily
the absorption of sodium and chloride not only in the proximal and
distal tubules but
also in the loop of Henle. The high degree of efficacy is largely due
to the unique site of
action. The action on the distal tubule is independent of any
inhibitory effect on carbonic
action. The action on the distal tubule is independent of any
inhibitory effect on carbonic
anhydrase and aldosterone.
Recent evidence suggests that furosemide glucuronide is the only or at
least the major
biotransformation product of furosemide in man. Furosemide is
extensively bound to
plasma pr
