Lasix is something that the user should expect to feel side effects from. It should be known that there are safer diuretics out there that are more tolerable. Due to it being used to remove excess fluid, dehydration could occur, but not likely as you’re removing “excess”. This creates a large electrolyte imbalance and should be watched closely. Lasix may cause a significant increase in blood bicarbonate levels.
If the user is experiencing dehydration and an electrolyte imbalance, the side effects of Lasix could be the following:
- Dizziness.
- Low Urine Volume.
- Muscle Cramps.
- Low Blood Pressure.
- Seizures.
- Headache.
- Dry Mouth.
- Gastrointestinal Discomfort.
Extreme abuse of the compound is fatal and should not be taken likely. Unfortunately, the line between use and abuse is very narrow so its use should be with caution. Lasix should only be used under strict medical supervision.

To edema, the dosage is between 20mg – 80mg per day and a 40mg dose of Lasix is used 2 times a day to treat high blood pressure.
Every athlete has to calculate their own dose specifically and should be directly in line with the individual factors of the athlete. 20mg should be sufficient and another 20mg twelve hours later if necessary. If is not common that you should need more than 40g per day in total. It is recommended that the drug not be used for longer than 2 – 3 days
Using a potassium sparring diuretic together with Lasix can be advised for a safe experience (20mg of Lasix with 50mg of Aldactone). This should help the user manage the side effects.
