UREX (frusemide 40 mg), UREX-M (frusemide 20 mg): Oedema: in adults, infants and children frusemide is indicated for the treatment of oedema associated with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, renal disease including nephrotic syndrome and other oedematous states amenable to diuretic therapy. Hypertension: May also be used alone in the control of mild to moderate hypertension and in combination with other antihypertensive agents in the treatment of more severe cases. Studies have shown that frusemide is either less effective than or equally effective as thiazide diuretics in uncomplicated hypertension. However, in patients with severe renal function impairment, a diuretic and antihypertensive response to frusemide may be achieved while thiazides have no effect. UREX FORTE (frusemide 500mg): Frusemide in a high-dosage formulation such as UREX FORTE (500 mg tablets) is intended exclusively for patients with severely impaired renal function. For use under strict medical supervision only within a hospital setting (see Dosage and Administration). High doses of frusemide may be used as an adjuvant treatment of oliguria and in the promotion of diuresis in the treatment of oedema; in selected patients with acute renal failure, e.g. in the post-operative phase and in association with septic infections; in selected patients with chronic renal failure with fluid retention, both in the pre-dialysis phase and when dialysis has become unavoidable, especially in the presence of acute pulmonary oedema; in selected patients with the nephrotic syndrome with severe impairment of renal function e.g. in chronic glomerulonephritis, lupus erythematous and Kimmelstiel-Wilson syndrome. If diuresis is less than 2.5 L/day dialysis has to be used.
