Tag: Diuretic
Diuretics, also known as water pills, are medications that help increase urine production and decrease excess fluid retention in the body. They are commonly used to treat conditions such as high blood pressure, heart failure, kidney disorders, and edema (fluid retention). Diuretics work by increasing the excretion of sodium and water through the kidneys, which helps reduce blood volume and lower blood pressure. Examples of diuretics include thiazides (such as hydrochlorothiazide), loop diuretics (such as furosemide), and potassium-sparing diuretics (such as spironolactone). These medications are available by prescription and are often used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan under the guidance of a healthcare provider.
