    Product Description

    Furosemide is a loop diuretic and an inhibitor of the Na+/K+/2Cl- (NKCC) cotransporters, NKCC1 and NKCC2 (Kis = ~10 µM for both).1,2 In vivo, furosemide (0.1 mg/kg, p.o.) increases diuresis in beagle dogs.3 Furosemide (30 mg/kg) reduces ventricular collagen deposition and fibrosis in a rat model of dilated cardiomyopathy.4 It is also an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase I (CAI), CAII, and CAIII (Kis = 0.052-0.065 µM) and organic ion transporter 1 (OAT1; Ki = 9.5 µM), as well as a GABAA receptor antagonist.5,6,7 This product is also available as an analytical reference standard (Item No. 26298).

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
