My dog is on Furosemide. He usually drinks a lot

My dog is on Furosemide. He usually drinks a lot of water shorty after I give him his dose. Tonight he appears very anxious, nervous, his head is constantly moving from left to right, or he sits looking Fixated at one spot . These appear to be neurological symptoms. Are there neuralgical side affects to this drug? He also refuses water which he normally drinks in large quantiles after his dose.

I cannot afford to take him to an emergency clinic tonight. I can bring him to my vet tomorrow so I would appreciate any feedback.

Thank you

I took a newly-filled Rx of furosemide 20mg this AM, per my cardiologist, and I find myself feeling the need to urinate constantly. I mean, virtually, minutes after the last one. I don t seem to be producing more than usual amts. I don t feel hungry or thirsty out of the ordinary - In fact, I have to remind myself to eat & drink. I take many other Rxs, basically for cardiac disease & depression. What s going on? Could my bupropion 100mg 3x/ day be causing this? They re never closer than 5 hrs apart. I have had CABG (5xG on 3xV) 22 yrs ago almost to the day; 2 stents about 12 yrs ago; & was Dxd w/depression round 1984.

I have not urinated for 12 hours despite drinking plenty of fluid. I have some bladder pressure. History: I had surgery on 17 November for knee replacement with no complications; I have been using the prescriptions: finasteride, furosemide and alfuzosin for several months. I drink cranberry juice daily. Thanks for your opinion.
