I was able to get a presc. for Furisimide. But my med onc gave it to me ONLY for the EDEMA I was experiencing with and after my chemo. It was a small dose and only had a couple of refills to keep me from taking too many of them. After all the chemo I had second time around I did need a 'water pill" for a while.
As an aside - I think the Herceptin also makes me keep a little more fluid in my system than I would ideally like. I don't know what else to attribute that to - other than ongoing Herceptin.
