A member asked:
Hi i want to know that dandelion root can be alternative to diamox? do dandelion root help in reducing csf fluid since it is diuretic?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Prescription Diamox is much different than the dandelion root supplement. I doubt that the extract would have any effect on CSF fluid.
