I take 40 mg of Lasix daily and it is not keeping the swelling down anymore. I get rid of 4-5 lbs of water each day and gain it back overnight. I am going to see what my Cardiologist has to say about it tomorrow. You should talk to your doctor about it for sure.

My cardiologist put me on spirolactone 25mgs as lasix wasn't working I have normal legs and feet after 2years of swelling. My b/p is in good range the only drawback is kidney function can be impaired always a drawback ..
