Do people on dialisis urinate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Urine and dialysis: Yes, people on dialysis can make urine when they start it. The urine of a kidney failure patient is not high quality, meaning that it does not eliminate waste products that normal kidneys eliminate. Patients make progressively less urine as their time on dialysis increases.
