Took this medicine because i had a severe allergic reaction to lasix. (My throat closed up). This drug does not have sulfa. However, I had severe migraines while on this medication as well as itching and developed red pimples. Did not find this drug effective in aiding in eliminating water retention. Did assist in lowering bp a little. Stopped taking several times to confirm it was this medication causing the side effects and not bystolic which I am also on.

I had 13 lbs of edema for 5 yrs. Allergic to sulpha meds. A potassium diuretic left me with a folic acid deficiency. That is very bad and effected my health in many ways- doctor agreed. This is the only loop diuretic that does not have sulpha. I lost all of the fluid. Only drawback is it is very caustic. Even throat gets irritated sometimes. Stomach was very irritated but after two years getting used to it. Great help to me to get all that fluid off. I weigh 114-116 now. 13 pounds of fluid really made me tired- was in early to mid 50s. Edecrin was a lifesaver. Carry around 13 extra pounds on your body and or even think about it and you will realize what I mean.

I started taking Edecrin for ankle swelling in June of 2017, regularly during the summer months, then intermittently as needed during the fall and winter. In December, I began having vomiting, severe watery diarrhea, chills, achiness, and severe weakness and fatigue whenever I took it. I cannot go to work in this condition; not sure what I will do next for the edema since I am allergic to sulfa.
