Does lasix (furosemide) causes hypernatremia?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes and no: Typically Lasix (furosemide) more often can cause hyponatremia but theoretically if you did not drink any fluids and you became overly dehydrated by still taking your Lasix (furosemide) then you could develop hypernatremia.

Usually, no: Lasix (furosemide) causes sodium wasting, so it classically causes a hyponatremia.
