Description

Furosemide 10mg/mL SDV (Single-Dose Vial) is a sterile, injectable loop diuretic medication available in packs containing 25 vials, each with a volume of 2 milliliters. This formulation is designed for intravenous or intramuscular administration, providing a potent and rapid method to manage fluid retention and edema associated with various medical conditions. Furosemide is widely used in clinical settings due to its effectiveness in promoting diuresis.

The active ingredient, furosemide, functions by inhibiting the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the ascending loop of Henle in the kidneys. This action increases the excretion of water, sodium, chloride, magnesium, and calcium, leading to a significant diuretic effect. Furosemide is indicated for the treatment of edema related to congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis, and renal disease, including nephrotic syndrome.

Administration of Furosemide 10mg/mL SDV is determined by healthcare professionals based on the patient’s condition, severity of edema, and response to treatment. Dosage and frequency are tailored to achieve the desired therapeutic effect while minimizing potential side effects. Common adverse effects include electrolyte imbalances, dehydration, hypotension, and ototoxicity, particularly with high doses or rapid administration.
