You are confusing efficacy of the treatment with physiology.

The study you are referring to (there are several, by the way, more than one) wasn't about "should one or both be used", and neither did it say "only one should be used" as you are falsely implying.

They do not have the same "effect". They have a similar therapeutic efficacy. They have different "effects".

As I said: the two different therapies complement each other, not duplicate each other.

FLAIR also has other measured benefits that furosemide does not have regarding - GASP! - straight old "performance enhancing" !!! Why are you not mounting an effort to get FLAIR strips outlawed?
