Lasix
Diuretic drug that reduces the amount of fluid in the lungs and other tissues. One of the ways it reduces fluid is to increase urine output.
This is Children's Glossary of Medical Terms - and much more. You'll find the basic definitions and, for many medical subjects, a larger medical context written by an experienced Children's pediatrician. All the definitions are in an easy-to-print format.
