Lasix and Furosemide vs. Bumex and Bumetanide

Note to self: Stop writing lasix on prescriptions. Write furosemide. No one gets lasix anymore, and writing lasix only invites confusion.

Also: Lasix is to bumex as VHS is to betamax. Lasix grabbed all the market share, but bumex is better.

    Its effects are more consistent and reliable.
