My new doctor wants me to begin taking MetoProlol, 25 mg and Liptor 10 mg. I am already taking Losartan, 50 mg. I am nervous about taking these drugs. The doctor was very hesitant about starting me on the MetoProlo and I sensed this. Now I am not so sure I really need this drug or the Lipitor for that matter.
There are a number of conditions that can cause fluid in the lungs. Fluid can accumulate in the actual spaces in the lungs where only the air you breathe normally resides; these tiny spaces are called alveoli. This condition is called pulmonary edema.
The term âfluid in the lungsâ is also used to refer to mucus inside the lungs. Mucus or phlegm is a thick, sticky secretion while âlung waterâ is a thin fluid. Other fluid accumulation may be the result of blood or pus.
