Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Osmotic diuretics, such as mannitol, can lead to fluid and electrolyte imbalances due to their mechanism of action, which involves increasing the osmolarity of the glomerular filtrate, leading to a decrease in water and electrolyte reabsorption. This can result in severe side effects such as pulmonary edema if not carefully monitored and managed.
