"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."

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."
