Do not discontinue Furosemide without consulting your doctor. Furosemide can be part of a combined treatment of hypertension, so the decision to change the procedure should be made by a doctor. Furosemide causes increased excretion of ions (sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium) - deficiencies of these components can cause malaise, so remember to supplement magnesium and potassium.
Additional information:
"Symptomatic hypotension with dizziness, fainting, or loss of consciousness may occur in patients treated with furosemide. This is especially true for the elderly, patients taking other medications at the same time."
"The use of furosemide can lead to hypokalemia, a diet rich in potassium is recommended.
In the case of prolonged use of furosemide, thiamine deficiency should be replenished. Frequently observed thiamine deficiency, caused by increased urine excretion due to the intake of furosemide, leads to a deterioration in heart function."
