Alcohol is a diuretic, and will accelerate passage of fluids through the kidneys, leading to frequent urination and eventual dehydration if the fluids are not replaced with non-alcoholic ones -- preferably water. (Of course when you are urinating a lot, and drunk, it is hard to convince yourself to drink much water.) Dehydration is one of the primary causes of hangovers.

Answer 4

It depends on the drug - most drugs will affect the urinary system in one way or another, but how it acts and what it does is specific to the drug. Alcohol (ethanol) affects the urinary system by inhibiting vasopressin (anti-diuretic hormone). This decreases reabsorbsion of water in the kidneys, meaning more water is excreted.

Answer 5

Alcohol can cause dehydration by increasing urine production, which can lead to electrolyte imbalances and kidney damage. It can also irritate the bladder and urinary tract, increasing the risk of infections. Chronic alcohol consumption can contribute to liver damage which can impact the excretory system's ability to filter toxins from the blood.
