Posology
Furosemide Injection 20mg/2ml
Adults: Initially, doses of 20 - 50mg may be administered by the intramuscular route, or by slow intravenous injection at a rate not exceeding 4mg/minute. The diuretic effect of furosemide is proportional to the dosage and, if larger doses are required, they should be given as a controlled infusion at a rate not exceeding 4mg/minute and titrated according to the response.
Elderly: Elimination of furosemide is generally slower in the elderly. Dosage should be titrated until the required effect is achieved.
Paediatric population: Dosages for children range from 0.5 - 1.5mg/kg weight daily up to a maximum total daily dose of 20mg.
