However, while the FDA issued a warning for the drug, other medical professionals who took the drug were not included in the FDA’s warning.

The FDA is concerned that the FDA has been ignoring the information surrounding Lasix® and the associated risks for patients taking it for heart failure.
FDA’s information is that Lasix® will increase the risk of congestive heart failure, but there is no evidence that the drug is associated with any serious liver damage. These reports are not supported by studies, but there is a lack of data that has been available in the literature.

The risk of acute MI and stroke was higher in patients treated with Lasix® compared with those treated with placebo, but there was no statistically significant association between the use of Lasix® and the increased incidence of MI and stroke.”
The FDA has not been able to prove the risk of liver damage with the use of Lasix® in patients with heart failure.
