Furocal Hampton
DIURETIC
Bottle x 10 and 50 ml.
Formula:
Each 100 ml contains: Furosemide 5.00 g.
Action:
This product is a diuretic and saluretic characterized pharmacodynamically by: 1- Rapid onset and short duration of diuresis. Its action does not extend beyond what is intended. 2- Pharmacological activity across the entire functional area of the nephron: proximal tubule, distal tubule and the ascending segment of the loop of Henle. 3- By adjusting dose, intervals and route of administration, the amount and duration of diuresis can be regulated, with a correct dose-response relationship and a range from minimum to maximum dose that can be increased up to 10-fold. 4- Marked selectivity in the elimination of electrolytes, with an optimal Na/K balance, practically does not cause hypokalemia. 5- At very high doses and administered over very prolonged periods it has shown excellent tolerance. 6- In the distal tubule it produces diuresis both in acidosis and alkalosis, has no inhibitory effect on carbonic anhydrase, does not influence aldosterone activity nor alter carbohydrate metabolism. 7- Can be administered to large and small animals.
Indications:
Horses, cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs.
Pulmonary edema, pulmonary congestion, ascites. Due to its diuretic action FUROCAL HAMPTON is effective in intoxications of various origins.

Sheep: Edema from traumatic and surgical wounds, cachectic and parasitic edemas.
Pigs: Edema in inflamed castration wounds.
Dogs: Pulmonary and bronchial edema, hydropericardium and hydrothorax, ascites (with and without hepatic cirrhosis), non-inflammatory cerebral edema, renal edema and combined edema from heart failure with hydropericardium).
Dosage and Routes of Administration:
In all cases doses are subject to the judgment of the attending professional. As a guideline dose.
