Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Inhibit ADH release.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diuretics are the substance usually drugs which helps in the diuresis or the production of more urine with a high amount of water and sodium ions. These diuretics are used in the clinical department to treat blood pressure.

The diuretics act by inhibiting the release of the vasopressin or anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) which helps in reabsorption of sodium and water from the urine. Since no ADH is released in the body, more water is released with the urine.

Thus, option-Inhibit ADH release is the correct answer.

The answer is inhibiting excessive ADH release could be a way of reducing water re-absorption in the kidneys.
Alcohol is a substance that can stimulate the release of ADH. Unfortunately, there are no drugs as of now that can reduce or stop the release of ADH.
