[]Content summary:Cirrhosis and obesity are rising health challenges that health professionals need to continue to discuss with patients, families, and their insurance plans. Rosuvastatin is an oral anti-inflammatory drug (AAID) that is being used to treat osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and depression.

In a large randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 20 women with obesity and 10 healthy volunteers, Ballester (20), Thibar (10), and Santos (10) stated, “These data, which show that the efficacy and safety of torasemide-PR 10 mg, torasemide-IR 10 mg, and furosemide-IR 40 mg are superior to torasemide-IR 40 mg in obesity and are superior to torasemide-PR 20 mg, torasemide-IR 40 mg, and furosemide-IR 40 mg in healthy volunteers, are consistent with a beneficial effect on lowering blood pressure. This is the first randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial assessing the efficacy and safety of torasemide-PR 10 mg, torasemide-IR 40 mg in patients with obesity and comorbid conditions.
Furosemide is a loop diuretic used to treat fluid retention (edema) in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or a kidney disorder such as nephrotic syndrome. Furosemide is also used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
Furosemide works by increasing the amount of urine the body makes, which helps reduce swelling and symptoms of fluid retention and helps lower high blood pressure. Furosemide tablets are sometimes called water pills as they increase how much you urinate.
Before using this medicine, tell your doctor if you have kidney disease, enlarged prostate, urination problems, cirrhosis or other liver disease, an electrolyte imbalance, high cholesterol, gout, lupus, diabetes, or an allergy to sulfa drugs.
Tell your doctor if you have recently had an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) or any type of scan using a radioactive dye that is injected into your veins. Do not take more of this medication than is recommended.
