Q: I have a question congestive heart failure, are there natural remedies for getting rid of water besides Lasix or other drugs?
George - St. Paul, MN
A: There are some natural diuretics including dandelion, ginger, and juniper. But these have fairly modest effects. Most patients who need a diuretic for congestive heart failure or edema are going to need prescription medication.Categories
