Sigma KEE - Diuretic
Diuretic

appearance as argument number 1
-------------------------


(documentation Diuretic EnglishLanguage "A diuretic is any substance that promotes diuresis, the increased production of urine. This includes forced diuresis. A diuretic tablet is sometimes colloquially called a water tablet. There are several categories of diuretics. All diuretics increase the excretion of water from the body, through the kidneys. There exist several classes of diuretic, and each works in a distinct way. Alternatively, an antidiuretic, such as vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone), is an agent or drug which reduces the excretion of water in urine.[from Wikipedia]") Mid-level-ontology.kif 10027-10035
