Congestion is a common symptom of heart failure in adults, and the associated fluid build-up can cause symptoms like shortness of breath and pulmonary congestion. Following an expanded indication approval earlier this year, FUROSCIX can be used to treat these patients regardless of New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class.
