Diuretic are prescribed to excrete additional extracellular fluids by increasing urine flow, sodium excretion and decreasing hypertension. There is a need to use these drugs in many veterinary treatments, such as oedema and congestive heart failure, udder and pulmonary oedema, ascites and acidosis or alkalosis, as well as dilution and faster excretion of toxins, especially those that are effective on the renal glumerular filtration rate (Pourjafar et al., 2013;Raidal et al., 2014). The function of the current diuretics include: loop, osmotic, potassium retainers and carbonic anhydrate inhibitors. The loop diuretics are very powerful drugs that prevent tubular reabsorption of sodium, chloride and other electrolytes from kidney tubules, increase their excretion and urine flow. Furosemide is considered to be one of the widely used drugs while also having some side effects, particularly serum potassium and sodium depletion (
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
