  2. Diuretic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diuretic

    They work primarily by expanding extracellular fluid and plasma volume, therefore increasing blood flow to the kidney, particularly the peritubular capillaries. This reduces medullary osmolality and thus impairs the concentration of urine in the loop of Henle (which usually uses the high osmotic and solute gradient to transport solutes and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diuresis

    In healthy people, the drinking of extra water produces mild diuresis to maintain the body water balance. Many people with health issues, such as heart failure and kidney failure, need diuretic medications to help their kidneys deal with the fluid overload of edema. These drugs promote water loss via urine production.

  5. Metolazone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metolazone

    Since most of the sodium in the lumen has already been reabsorbed by the time the filtrate reaches the distal convoluted tubule, thiazide diuretics have limited effects on water balance and on electrolyte levels. [4] Nevertheless, they can be associated with low sodium levels, volume depletion, and low blood pressure, among other adverse effects.

  6. Loop diuretic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_diuretic

    Without such a concentrated medulla, water has less of an osmotic driving force to leave the collecting duct system, ultimately resulting in increased urine production. Loop diuretics cause a decrease in the renal blood flow by this mechanism. This diuresis leaves less water to be reabsorbed into the blood, resulting in a decrease in blood volume.
