Age
Over 18 years
Sex
All sexes can join.
Disease stage
Clinically stable on peritoneal dialysis (PD), with a PD catheter that works well and urine output of more than 500 ml per day.
Earlier treatment
Must have taken a stable oral furosemide dose of 120 mg or more per day during the previous fifteen days. Must have had a peritoneal equilibrium test in the previous three months.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Patient or caregiver cannot give the treatment into the abdomen at home
  • Need to change the other oral water tablets (diuretics) when joining or during the trial

This trial only enrols participants on dialysis. The registry sentence this rests on: Clinically stable patients in PD technique
