Detailed explanation-1: -What is oliguria? Oliguria is a medical term for low urine output (how much you pee). In the case of an adult, this means less than 400 milliliters (mL) to 500 mL (around two cups) of urine per 24 hours. The numbers depend on weight in terms of children and infants.
Detailed explanation-2: -Common causes include: Dehydration from not drinking enough fluids and having vomiting, diarrhea, or fever. Total urinary tract blockage, such as from an enlarged prostate. Medicines such as anticholinergics and some antibiotics.
Detailed explanation-3: -Oliguria is when you pee less than usual. For adults, that means less than 400 milliliters of urine a day. The specific amounts for infants and children are based on their weight (less than 1 milliliter per kilogram per hour for infants, and less than 0.5 milliliters per kilogram per hour for children).
