ResumenEl uso de diuréticos del asa esta muy extendido en la práctica medica. Con un amplio margen de seguridad, poseen efectos adversos que deben ser tenidos en cuenta para evitarlos o reconocerlos en cuanto aparecen. La ototoxicidad asociada a la furosemida es, en principio, excepcional y remite con la supresión del tratamiento, aunque se ha descrito cofosis permanente por lesión coclear.

Ototoxicity associated to furosemide is infrequent and reversible. However, permanent deafness associated with furosemide administration has been previously reported.
