Conditions that cause fluid in the lungs that are not related to the heart are known as non-cardiac pulmonary edema. In these conditions, the alveoli or capillaries become leaky allowing fluid to accumulate in the lungs. Non-cardiac pulmonary edema is caused by a number of factors, including: 1  Lung infections. Preload reducers. 2  The pressure caused by fluid in the lungs can be alleviated by medications called preload reducers. 3  Furosemide (Lasix), which is a diuretic, triggers urination to get rid of excess fluid. 4  Nitroglycerin is a drug that causes blood vessels to dilate.
