Explanation & Rationale
A. Used to treat inflammation and swelling: Furosemide (Lasix) does not treat inflammation. It is a diuretic used to reduce fluid retention (edema), not inflammation. B. Used in the treatment of hypertension and dysrhythmias: Furosemide is primarily used in the treatment of hypertension and edema, not dysrhythmias. C. Used in the treatment of cystic fibrosis to help break up thick secretions: Furosemide is not used for cystic fibrosis; it is a loop diuretic used for fluid retention and hypertension. D. Used in the treatment of hypertension and edema: Furosemide (Lasix) is a loop diuretic that helps to reduce fluid buildup (edema) and lower blood pressure in conditions such as heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and hypertension.
