PPT-Diuretics Diuretics are drugs that increase the volume of urine excreted.

Most diuretic agents are inhibitors of renal ion transporters that decrease the reabsorption of Na at different sites in the nephron As a result Na and other ions such as Cl enter the urine in greater than normal amounts along with water which is carried passively to maintain osmotic equilibrium.
