Diabetes insipidus refers to a rare disorder in which an individual excretes a large amount of dilute and odorless urine.  There are four different types of diabetes insipidus; central, nephrogenic, dipsogenic and gestational.

Treatment with Diuril demonstrates a decrease in saluresis, i.e the excretion of sodium and chloride, after approximately eight hours following the initial dose and a decrease in kaliuresis, i.e the excretion of potassium ions, approximately fifteen hours following the initial dose <ref name = "seven"> Crawford, J.D., Kennedy, G.C., and Hill, L.E.
