Definition
Reducing the production or excretion of urine; a substance that acts to conserve water in the body.
Etymology
From anti- (against) + diuretic (increasing urine flow). Diuretic comes from Greek dia- 'through' + ourein 'to urinate.' This medical term became common in the 20th century as hormone science advanced.
Kelly Says
The antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also called vasopressin, is why you don't pee constantly—it's one of your body's master switches controlling water balance, and alcohol shuts it down (which is why you need to pee when drinking)!
