Just wondering if anyone has been prescribed furosemide tablets to reduce water retention and having to get up in the night so much? Via my GP the oncology dept has suggested I take 20mg at 4pm to remove extra fluid between then and 10pm. I would be very interested in your results - and any side-effects.
