Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Diuretics are medications that increase urine production, so persons taking diuretics can be expected to produce a larger volume of urine, resulting in polyuria (frequent urination). Anuria (no urine production) and oliguria (low urine output) are not expected when taking diuretics unless there are other underlying issues. Nocturia (waking up at night to urinate) may also occur with increased urine production, but this is not the most specific or accurate answer to the question. Therefore, the best choice is B) Polyuria.
