Furosemide is a monosulphonyl diuretic. It is an effective diuretic that retains its activity even in low glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Furosemide has a distinctive action on renal tubular function. It affects a peak diuresis far greater than that observed with other agents. Other features are (I) prompt onset of action (II) inhibition of sodium and chloride transport in the ascending limb of the loop of Henle and (III) independence of their action from acid-base balance changes.?Furosemide acts primarily to inhibit electrolyte reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. Furosemide is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and considerable proportions are bound to plasma proteins. It is rapidly excreted in the urine. With an hour after intravenous injection, its effect is evident in about 5 minutes and last for about 2 hours.
