Explanation:

Diuretic therapy is a type of therapy with the use of medicines (diuretics) that work on the functioning of the kidneys, interfering with the process of filtration and resorption of water and salts and increasing the amount of urine produced by the body. By enhancing urinary flow, diuretics favor the elimination of sodium, often responsible for cases of high blood pressure and heart and kidney failure.

It is common for patients undergoing this type of treatment to need some kind of supplement, however any abdominal discomfort or distress this patient feels should be immediately reported to the attending physician.
