Lasix (furosemide) is a diuretic medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure, edema, and other conditions associated with excess fluid retention in the body. It is not typically used to treat coughing, as its primary mechanism of action is to increase the urine output to reduce fluid build-up.
However, in some cases where coughing is related to fluid retention in the lungs (e.g. congestive heart failure), Lasix may indirectly help by reducing the fluid overload in the body and relieving the pressure on the lungs. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause of the cough and appropriate treatment.
