Detailed explanation-1: -Diuretics, sometimes called water pills, help rid your body of salt (sodium) and water. Most of these medicines help your kidneys release more sodium into your urine. The sodium helps remove water from your blood, decreasing the amount of fluid flowing through your veins and arteries.
Detailed explanation-2: -Diuretics are drugs that increase the rate of urine flow and sodium excretion to adjust the volume and composition of body fluids.
Detailed explanation-3: -Diuresis is a condition in which the kidneys filter too much bodily fluid. That increases your urine production and the frequency with which you need to use the bathroom. Most adults will urinate about four to six times a day, with average output between 3 cups and 3 quarts of urine.
Detailed explanation-4: -Diuretics. A diuretic is any substance that has the opposite effect of ADH-they increase urine volume, decrease urine osmolarity, lead to an increased plasma osmolarity, and often reduced blood volume. Many substances can act as diuretics, albeit with different mechanisms.
