Get a bumetanide (generic Bumex) prescription online for edema

Bumetanide is prescribed for the treatment of edema (fluid retention) in the body. Edema is the medical term for swelling caused by fluid trapped in the body’s tissue. This swelling is often a symptom, not a condition, caused by diverse medical problems.

Common causes of edema include:

• Sitting or standing too long
  
• Venous insufficiency (weakness or damage to the veins in the leg)
  
• Congestive heart failure
  
• Kidney disease & damage
  
• Thyroid diseases
  
• Liver damage (cirrhosis)
  
• Medication such as blood pressure medication, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication (NSAIDs), steroids, diabetes medication
  
• Allergic reactions
  
• High salt diet
  
• Pregnancy
  

Edema frequently affects the hands, arms, legs, feet, and ankles.

Common symptoms of edema include:

• Swelling in the affected area
  
• The skin over the affected area looks stretched out or shiny
  
• The skin holds a dimple after pressure is applied to it for several seconds
  
• Difficulty breathing (if the edema is in lung tissue)
  
• Difficulty with movement
  
• Swelling in the abdomen
  

Bumetanide has been shown to cause some side effects, however, this medication is generally well tolerated. The most common side effect of diuretic medication is more frequent urination.

Other effects caused by taking bumetanide include:

• Dizziness
  
• Dehydration
  
• Stomach pain
  
• Diarrhea
  

If these adverse reactions do not go away within a few days, talk to your health care provider. If you experience difficulty breathing, skin rash, fever, or unusual bleeding/ bruising while taking bumetanide, seek medical attention immediately.

As with all prescription medication, be sure to inform the prescribing doctor about any medical conditions you have been previously diagnosed with and any medication/ supplements you are currently taking before starting treatment with bumetanide. Bumetanide can interact with other forms of medication and substances, causing potentially serious side effects. In addition, let your doctor know if you are pregnant or plan on becoming pregnant. Do not breastfeed while taking this medication.
