  • Title: Comparison of the efficacy of furosemide with two furosemide-triamterene combinations in the treatment of cardiac insufficiency.
    Author: Saarimaa H, Ojasalo T.
    Journal: J Int Med Res; 1985; 13(4):236-40. PubMed ID: 4043516.
    Abstract:
    Nine patients suffering from cardiac insufficiency were given furosemide and two furosemide-triamterene combination products in random order. A statistically significant diuretic response was achieved with all these preparations. The combination of furosemide and triamterene brought about a 'softer' diuresis, no hypokalaemia and the advantage of dosage as only one tablet, thus eliminating the need for taking two separate drugs.
