What is the oral equivalent dosing for Furosemide to Torsemide?

F 40mg = T 10 mg
F 20mg = T 20 mg
F 40mg = T 20 mg
F 80mg = T 20 mg

The correct answer is: F 40mg = T 20 mg

This is the correct answer because the oral equivalent dosing for Furosemide to Torsemide is a 21 ratio. This means that for every 40mg of Furosemide, you would need 20mg of Torsemide. Option A is incorrect because it has the same dosage for both medications. Option B is incorrect because it does not follow the 2:1 ratio. Option D is incorrect because it has a higher dosage of Furosemide compared to Torsemide, which does not follow the 2:1 ratio. Therefore, the correct answer is C as it follows the 2:1 ratio and is the most accurate oral equivalent dosing for Furosemide to Torsemide.
