Why are my husband's feet still swollen whhile on lasix (furosemide)? it's been almost a week.

Edema: It is necessary to know the reason your husband's feet are swollen as well as the state of his heart and kidneys and venous system. The problem could be not enough dose of Lasix (furosemide) but there are many other possibilities. Should discuss with husband's doctor to get the full explanation of what's going on.
