Reabsorption can be influenced by various interventions:
- Altering Urine pH: Manipulating urine pH can change the ionization state of a compound, reducing its reabsorption. For instance, acidifying or alkalizing urine can enhance the elimination of certain toxins. - Use of Diuretics: Diuretics increase urine flow rate, potentially decreasing the time available for reabsorption and enhancing toxin elimination. - Inhibitors of Transport Proteins: Specific inhibitors can block the reabsorption of substances by targeting transport proteins, thus facilitating their excretion.
