Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
The transition from parenteral to oral mercurial diuretics represents a simplified, less toxic, and more cost-effective approach for managing ambulatory patients with chronic congestive heart failure.
Improvement in the usage of an effective therapeutic agent is highly desirable especially when the method of administration is simplified, the total dosage reduced, the toxicity of the drug diminished and the cost of medical care lessened. The replacement of parenteral injections of the mercurial diuretics by an oral preparation in ambulatory patients in chronic congestive heart failure represents a step forward in the management of this type of patient.
