Answer:

The correct answer is 1. Allergy to sulfa drugs.

Explanation:

Furosemide is a loop diuretic and it is given in patients with hypertension and in treatment of edemas.

If a patient is allergic to sulfa or sulfonamides, then the patient may also be allergic to furosemide. So the doctor must ask the patient if he is allergic to any drug.
