Is there anything close to rx diuratics thats over the counter?
Question:
Answers:
Yes, there is an OTC medicine called Diurex that you can purchase from your local drug store.
Not to be rude but tack2900 is incorrect. There are many reasons why a Diuretic would be used. They are not just used to treat Congestive Heart Failure.
As has been stated however if you are going to use them for weight loss please be aware that there are risks and at the most you'd only lose a few pounds.
If there are other reasons such as high blood pressure and or bloating and swelling it's recommended that you speak to a physician.
Whatever you decide to try please be safe and follow all manufacturer's directions.
Good luck
Why do you want diuretics? Do you have CHF? That would be about the only reason for a diuretic. They don't work for weight loss if that's what you're wondering. Caffeine is an over the counter diuretic, but it's also a stimulant - which is hard on the nervous system, and the cardiovascular system.
the best natural diuratic is asparagus. Eat lots of this and it will flush The excess water from your system.
