AB In a crossover study bumetanide, 2 to 6 mg/d, was compared with furosemide, 40 to 160 mg/d, in the treatment of 10 patients with the nephrotic syndrome and massive edema. The two drugs, which both act on the loop of Henle, were found to be equally effective. Patients with renal insufficiency responded poorly to both drugs.
