  • Title: A comparative study of frusemide-amiloride and cyclopenthiazide-potassium chloride in the treatment of congestive cardiac failure in general practice.
    Author: Crawford RJ, Allman S, Gibson W, Kitchen S, Richards HH.
    Journal: J Int Med Res; 1988; 16(2):143-9. PubMed ID: 3378660.
    Abstract:
    Forty-seven patients entered this comparison of frusemide-amiloride and cyclopenthiazide-potassium chloride in the treatment of congestive cardiac failure in general practice. Frusemide-amiloride was 'very satisfactory' in 92% of the patients compared to only 55% who took cyclopenthiazide-potassium chloride. Significantly more patients were free of paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea and orthopnoea after taking frusemide-amiloride.
