|---|---|---|
| Furosemide |
Furosemide inhibits active chloride transport in the thick ascending limb. Re-absorption of sodium, chloride from the nephron is reduced and a hypotonic or isotonic urine produced. The evidence from many experimental studies suggests that furosemide acts along the entire nephron with the exception of the distal exchange site. |
