++
++
++
a. When you leave dialysis, there is extra fluid left in your body, which can strain your heart. You should now take more of your water pills, 2 tablets of furosemide instead of 1 tablet, on your non-dialysis days (Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays).
++
++
b. Your doctor changed your furosemide dose. You should now take 80 mg on non-dialysis days.
++
++
c. Your weight after dialysis is far from your dry weight. Your doctor wants you to double your dose of furosemide.
