Diuretic

A substance that promotes the increased production of urine, used to manage fluid balance and treat conditions like hypertension.

Renal Blood Flow

The amount of blood that passes through the kidneys per unit time, crucial for kidney function and filtration.

Sodium Reabsorption

The process by which sodium ions are reabsorbed from the kidney tubules back into the bloodstream, playing a critical role in regulating blood pressure and fluid balance.
