Contrary to popular thought, Lasix (generic is furosemide) is not a water pill: it is a pill of Lasix or it could be an IV of Lasix too.

Dosing

There are 3 accepted formulas used to determine how much Lasix to administer to any given patient:

The House of God Lasix Formula - Law VII states that age + BUN = Lasix dose.

The Cr40 Formula - This formula states that creatinine x 40 = Lasix dose.

The Other Formula - This last formula states that Lasix 80 +/- whatever Renal says +/- whatever Cards says = Lasix dose.
