It has a rapid onset of action, normally within 1 hour of administration, but a relatively short duration of activity of approximately 4 hours. These characteristics mean that dosing can be timed within the day, to allow consequent passage of water at socially convenient times.
Used in the treatment of oedema. Conditions suitable for treatment include ascites, hydrothorax, pulmonary oedema and oedema of the mammary gland or of the legs, as well as oedema resulting from cardiac insufficiency, hepatic or renal dysfunction, parasitism or of a traumatic origin. Combined therapy with other medicinal products may be indicated.

Side Effects
Side effects of Furosemide Frusemide Tablet 20 mg (Single Tablet)
For animal treatment only.
Do not exceed the recommended dosage.
RONAXAN should not be used in pregnant animals.
Do not use in known cases of hypersensitivity to the active ingredient.
Vomiting, oesophagitis and oesophageal ulcerations have been reported as side effects following doxycycline therapy and RONAXAN should not therefore be administered to patients with dysphagia, or diseases accompanied by vomiting.
Photodermatitis has occurred following tetracycline therapy after exposure to intense sun or ultraviolet light.
The use of tetracycline during tooth development may lead to tooth discoloration. Doxycycline, because of the lower affinity for calcium, carries a lower risk than other tetracyclines.
Cross resistance to other tetracyclines can occur.
Doxycycline should not be used concurrently with other antibiotics especially bactericidal drugs such as the ?-lactams.
Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Handle the tablets with care if you know you are hypersensitive (allergic) to tetracycline. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice.
