Does lasix cause dehydration and hypotension?
Lasix is a brand name of frusemide. Frusemide is a diuretic - i.e. it causes the kidneys to produce more urine. If the fluid passed is not replaced by drinking then dehydration can occur. If there is dehydration then there will be a drop in blood pressure due to reduced intravascular volume.
