1 Sodium azide is a rapidly acting, potentially deadly chemical that exists as an odorless white solid. 2  When it is mixed with water or an acid, sodium azide changes rapidly to a toxic gas with a pungent (sharp) odor. Breathing the gas that is formed from sodium azide causes the most harm, but ingesting (swallowing) sodium azide can be toxic as well. 2  The gas formed from sodium azide is most dangerous in enclosed places where the gas will be trapped. 3  The toxic gas quickly disperses in open spaces, making it less harmful outdoors.
Lasix (furosemide) is a loop diuretic (water pill) that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt, allowing the salt to instead be passed in your urine. Lasix treats fluid retention (edema) in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or a kidney disorder such as nephrotic syndrome.
