Where oh where do diuretics act in the nephron? A very common medical school and post graduate question, this VERY short video goes through all the major classes of diuretics and explains clearly WHERE and HOW they work to induce a diuretic effect.

A key concept is understanding that when SODIUM stays INSIDE the nephron tubules (and is NOT reabsorbed back into the body) it carries water with it, which is excreted. Nearly all the diuretics work by this principle.

Used widely in the community, hospitals and ICU, diuretics are an incredibly common medication – so you WILL be asked about them in nearly every specialty medical exam.
