If your allergic to lasix is there another drug that works?

He had badly leaking heart valve. Took over a week before they could operate. They picked lasix as the cause of rash through elimination. Said that is probably what caused the rash.

another correction: "So much has happened...."

Barb, Bumex is another diuretic, about 40x stronger than Lasix, according to a family medical professional. It's been used for CHF post surgery when the OR staff overinfused, and for another instance of (if I remember correctly) pleural effusion. (So many has happened in the last few months I don't correctly remember all the details w/o checking my records).

What caused this hospitalization?

Lasix is a diuretic. There are lots of diuretics. If the rash appeared after fluids were drawn off, ask what products were used during the procedure including the likely culprit : the contrast fluid.

Not familiar with that medication. It would be best to ask your husband's doctor what he/she would recommend.
