FRUMIL

Frumil Information

Frumil is a drug based on two active ingredients, Furosemide (a loop diuretic) and Amiloride hydrochloride (a potassium-sparing diuretic). The combination of these two ingredients, also known under the generic name of Co-amilofruse, is typically employed to remove excess water from the organism by increasing the urine production, while at the same time preventing the blood potassium levels from falling too low.

Frumil Indications

Frumil is typically prescribed for the treatment of oedema (fluid retention) in patients that require special monitoring and prevention of a severe drop in blood potassium levels, such as those suffering from liver cirrhosis, heart failure, kidney disease or oedema induced by corticosteroid or estrogen treatment. The prescribing health care provider may decide to employ Frumil under other medical circumstances as well. If you would like to learn more regarding the reasons you have been prescribed a therapy course with this medicine, you should consult your personal health care specialist.

Frumil Warnings

Frumil should not be used in the case of patients that are hypersensitive to Furosemide, Amiloride or any of the other ingredients of this medical product. In case the patient presents an allergy to sulphonamides, health care professionals may recommend the use of a drug other than Frumil. This drug may not be suitable for the treatment of patients with hypovolaemia, hyper or hypokalemia or hyponatremia or for the treatment of patients suffering from Addison’s disease, anuria or kidney failure.

Patients with liver cirrhosis who experience consciousness loss due to the disease affecting the brain may not be prescribed this medicine. Other medical conditions may also prevent you from starting a therapy course with Frumil.

Frumil typically increases the frequency of urination, or may increase the urine quantity. In order to avoid having to wake up to urinate, it is recommended that the doses are taken at least 4 hours before going to bed.
