depends which diuretic you are on if you are on furosemide you may need as much as 120mg a day ( 40 is normal) BUT you then need regular testing of cell potassium levels over the long term if you are on a potassium sparing diuretic like amiloride you have to very careful as they can push the potassium up to dangerous levels, presumably you have edema or congestive heart failure
