Furosemide tablets beside a potassium and sodium laboratory slip

01Anuria

LASIX is contraindicated in anuria. It is also contraindicated in people with a history of hypersensitivity to furosemide.

Generic furosemide 80 mg, thirty tablets - the morning strength this page covers, checked October 2026. GoodRx lists generic furosemide as low as $1.80 for the most common version. We do not invent a retail figure for the 80 mg tablet. Ask the pharmacy to price that NDC. Kaelis Med does not dispense.

02Parenteral rate

If a clinician uses high-dose parenteral LASIX, a controlled intravenous infusion is advisable. For adults, an infusion rate not exceeding 4 mg LASIX per minute has been used. LASIX should not be given with ethacrynic acid because of ototoxicity. Except in life-threatening situations, also avoid pairing LASIX with an aminoglycoside antibiotic, especially when kidney function is already reduced.

Before you start, stop, or change any medicine, speak with your prescriber or pharmacist. They hold your chart. This bin card does not. Open the bin disclaimer.
