It’s a diuretic and it’s taken for people who need to get rid of fluids. I’m taking it to make a different med work better. I’m not drinking more water than normal and I’m skinny. Where is the extra liquid coming from to make me pee more?
It didn’t create more urine, in my experience. It created more urgency, “you will pee right now” as long as it was on board, until it had pulled as much fluid out of circulation as the drug’s blood level and half life synergy could make happen. I choose the timing of that “right now!” to be over long before I planned to be asleep by taking it in the morning. If my schedule called for me to be somewhere without easy access to bathrooms soon after I was due to take it (like being on a plane or at a huge outdoor event), I just juggled taking it that day to a point in the day where I’d again be back in easy access to bathrooms for those several hours of urgent diuresis. YMMV.
Thanks. That makes sense. And I’m not suffering that effect thankfully.
