i take ritalin 40 mg and zzanaxx and i thought i was taking 2 1mg zzanaxx's but i accidently took 2 40 mg ic furosemide which are my husbands will i be ok tonight ? ## I'm not a doctor, but I can assume that you may feel the effects (and possibly side effects) of the furosemide until it wears off, but you 'should' be fine since you don't accidentally do this on a regular basis. It's been two days since you posted this, so I'm guessing that you're over any symptoms that the drug may have caused you. 80mg of furosemide is a high dose, but if you made it threw the day ok then I personally wouldn't stay worried. If for some reason you still notice any effects from it, I would highly recommend that you go to your doctor and let him know what happened. He o...

What are the side effects of Furosemide? ## As with many diuretics, Furosemide can cause dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, including loss of potassium, calcium, sodium, and magnesium. It is especially important to prevent potassium loss. Excessive use of Furosemide will most likely lead to a metabolic alkalosis due to hypochloremia and hypokalemia. It should be used with caution in horses with liver problems or electrolyte abnormalities. Overdose may lead to dehydration, change in drinking patterns and urination, seizures, GI problems, kidney damage, lethargy, collapse, and coma. For more information about this drug and its side effects, please refer to the link below... If you have any more questions or concerns, please post back and I will be happy to help you.
