DIURETICS
Yes they do! Diuretics are an antihypertensive drug and they cause xerostomia, diuretics increase urine output not increase saliva production.
DiureticDiureticthe medication type that will increase urine secretion is diuretics. They will cause the kidneys to excrete any access fluid, such as fluid in the lungs. When giving diuretics to a patient be careful to monitor electrolytes such as sodium and potassium because they will deplete as the fluid leaves the body.
-Increase in alderstone secretion -Decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) -Increase in ADH (antidiuretic hormone) secretion -Decrease in secretion of atrial natriuretic peptide

DIURETICSDIURETICS ARE used to stimulate the kidneys and rid the body of excess fluid. That's the simple answer. For more info, Google "diuretics" or "hydrochlorothiazide".
Not all diuretics work the same. The class of diuretics and how they work are:High ceiling loop diureticsHigh ceiling diuretics, such as Loop diuretics, inhibit the body's ability to reabsorb sodium (salt). Furosemide is an example of this type of diuretic.ThiazidesThis type of diuretic includes hydrochlorothiazide. They enhance excretion of sodium, potassium, calcium and chlorine ions, which leads to water retention in the urine.Carbonic anhydrase inhibitorsThis class of diuretics inhibit the enzyme carbonic anhydrase which is found in the proximal convoluted tubule. This results in bicarbonate and potassium retention in urine and decreased sodium absorption. Acetazolamide and methazolamide are in this class.Potassium-sparing diureticsThese do not promote the secretion of potassium into the urine, so not as much potassium is lost as in other diuretics.Calcium-sparing diureticsCalcium-sparing diuretics result in a relatively low rate of excretion of calcium.The sparing effect on calcium can be beneficial in hypocalcemia, or unwanted in hypercalcemia. The thiazides and potassium-sparing diuretics are considered to be calcium-sparing diuretics. Conversely, loop diuretics promote a significant increase calcium excretion, which can increase risk of reduced bone density.Osmotic diureticsOsmotic diuretics cause water to be retained within the proximal tubule and descending limb of loop of Henle.Low ceiling diureticsThe term "low ceiling diuretic" is used to indicate a diuretic has a rapidly flattening dose effect curve (in contrast to "high ceiling", where the relationship is close to linear).Please see the Related Link for more information.There are also foods that can act as diuretics.

diuretics
Diuretics are grouped into three main categories: thiazide diuretics, loop diuretics, and potassium-sparing diuretics. Each category works by different mechanisms to increase urine output and reduce fluid retention in the body. Thiazide diuretics are commonly used for treating high blood pressure, while loop diuretics are often used for reducing excess fluid in conditions like heart failure or kidney disease. Potassium-sparing diuretics help maintain potassium levels while promoting diuresis.
Diuretics are medicines which relieve water retention in the body by increasing urination. This effect includes an increase in sodium and bicarbonate in the urine, due to the effect on the reabsorption function of the nephron.
Neurohypophyseal secretion of antidiuretic hormone or ADH stimulates the formation of concentrated urine. This hormone is also known as argipressin.
