Is HYPERTENSION a side effect of FUROSEMIDE ? ( FactMed.com )

About this FactMed analysis covering adverse side effect reports of FUROSEMIDE patients who developed HYPERTENSION.

FactMed provides MD-approved analysis to help both patients, researchers, and physicians accurately assess the risk profile for more than 20,000 different pharmaceutical products. The below report offers compiled information from Food & Drug Administration and FactMed user submissions. Between January 2004 and October 2012, 2149 individuals taking FUROSEMIDE reported HYPERTENSION to the FDA. A total of 60897 FUROSEMIDE drug adverse event reaction reports were made with the FDA during this time period. Often the FDA only receives reports of the most critical and severe cases; these numbers may therefore underrepresent the complication rate of the medication.

FDA Research Report

Introduction This page is designed to help you determine the relationship, if any, between FUROSEMIDE and HYPERTENSION. In doing so, we compare FUROSEMIDE with other drugs that cause HYPERTENSION, to help you evaluate whether or not FUROSEMIDE causes HYPERTENSION. Likewise, this page shows the most highly-reported side effects of FUROSEMIDE, so you can see if HYPERTENSION ranks among FUROSEMIDE's most well-known side effects.
