Osmotic diuretics are a type of diuretic not a specific drug. Osmotic diuretics work by increasing blood flow to the kidneys and preventing the tubes in the kidneys from making such concentrated urine so that there is no gradient for water to be reabsorbed so you will pee all that water out. An example of an osmotic diuretic is mannitol.

How do you determine Iso-osmotic concentration?
Iso-osmotic concentration refers to a solution that has the same osmotic pressure as another solution. To determine iso-osmotic concentration, you can use colligative properties such as freezing point depression or osmotic pressure measurements.
