Torsemide "Torsemide has really been effective in reducing the edema that I suffer from Pulmonary Hypertension. It really gets out the extra fluid without any harsh side effects. I used to take Lasix (furosemide), and I had to be taken off it after I suffered painful red nodules all up and down my legs. Furosemide was far more harsh than the Demadex, and I'm glad my doctor switched me to it."

"I find that torsemide works very well for me. I don't take it every day, more like every third or fourth day. The only downside is that if I take it every day, I get very painful cramps in my thighs. Now I take calcium-magnesium, and that seems to reduce the incidence of cramping. If one does happen, I also take a tablespoon of mustard, recommended by Dr. Oz on TV, which has turmeric in it, and that helps very much also. Torsemide helps greatly with reducing any edema that I have in my ankles, feet, and legs. Other than the occasional cramping, I experience no other side effects, and I will continue taking this drug."

"Took torsemide, made me have diarrhea and low output of urine. The short version: it did not work, and it made me very sick."
