Partially attenuates exertional pulmonary hypertension in ponies without abolishing it; leaves open translation to clinical veterinary or human practice.
Does furosemide administration alter right-sided heart and esophageal pressures during exercise in healthy ponies?
Furosemide administration partially attenuates exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension in ponies, though marked pulmonary hypertension remains a consistent feature of exertion.
Goetz et al. (1986) studied this question.
