"I have found that I need 30 mg in the summer during high humidity and normally 20 mg the rest of the year. Wish I didn't need to cut the pills (no 30 mg available)."

"I initially complained to the GP at private clinics and hospitals in South Africa about not being able to sleep lying down. Following incompetence by the clinic and two private hospitals, I was admitted to the heart ward in a public facility that is also an academic hospital. The doctors put me on 4 x 80 mg (injectable) for the first 3 days. After two days, the swelling in my legs and body had gone down. I was peeing more than 2000 ml every 12 hours. By the 5th day, I was back to normal. From the start, I had no discomfort in the stomach and no nausea like I had while in the private hospitals. Clearly, while the private hospital used Lasix and also prescribed Lasix, the dosage of 40 mg per day was ineffective."
