Yes, which can cause horses to lose 20-30 pounds if given before a race. It also protects the horse from the damage it does to it's heart when over-exerting itself. Thanks to this thread I went all down this dark road.

Lasix (furosemide) is a medication routinely used to prevent lung bleeding in horses with exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH).
This bleeding disorder is prevalent in racehorses following bouts of high-intensity exercise. Veterinarians often recommend treating with Lasix on race days to minimize the risk of bleeding, with a reported 74.2% of racehorses in North America using the drug. [28] Horses on Lasix have faster race times and earn more money over their career than horses not on the drug. [28] However, controversy surrounds the widespread use of Lasix in the racing industry. While research shows that furosemide is an effective treatment for “bleeders,” some argue it should be banned as a performance-enhancing agent. This drug is also potent diuretic with a risk of side effects if it is not used properly. https://madbarn.com/lasix-for-horses/ |
