Hello,
The dilute urine can give false result in some drug testing.
So if you are submitting urine for medical fitness purpose than try to give an early morning urine sample.
The early morning urine is always concentrated. If not than diabetes insipidus has to be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
