    After about 3 yrs of Lasix (20mg) I developed an unknown allergic reaction that caused blistering on my hands and feet. My feet would get 20-30 at a time and my hands would get hundreds at a time. I had to take medication to keep the breakouts minimized. This slow torture lasted 2 years or so. Due to a situation on my part that engaged my stubborn streak I was without lasix for a month. I realized that since I wasn’t taking the lasix I also wasn’t needing the pill for the blisters. Started lasix again… blisters. Stopped taking lasix… no blisters. After 2 yrs lasix wasn’t really working anymore for me so it didn’t really matter that I stopped. I could drink a liter of water have a lasix and still not urinate to excess. I am still sensitive to processed foods and drinks however that are flavored with the wrong “fruity flavoring” (somehow related to a chemical in lasix). No more blisters or claritin though. Yeah!
