Vasopressin agonists are used therapeutically in various conditions, and its long-acting synthetic analogue desmopressin is used in conditions featuring low vasopressin secretion, as well as for control of bleeding (in some forms of von Willebrand disease and in mild haemophilia A) and in extreme cases of bedwetting by children.
The vasopressin receptor 2 blocker tolvaptan may also be used. [2] The presence of cerebral edema, or other moderate to severe symptoms, may necessitate intravenous hypertonic saline administration with close monitoring of the serum sodium levels to avoid overcorrection. [2]
Studies have indicated that due to polymorphism of platelet V 1 R there is significant heterogeneity in the aggregation response of normal human platelets to vasopressin. [ 1 ] V 1 Rs are found in kidney , where they occur in high density on medullary interstitial cells , vasa recta , and epithelial cells of the collecting duct . [ 1 ]
Nephrogenic DI (NDI), also known as arginine vasopressin resistance (AVP-R), [5] occurs when the kidneys do not respond properly to vasopressin. [1] Dipsogenic DI is a result of excessive fluid intake due to damage to the hypothalamic thirst mechanism. [1] It occurs more often in those with certain psychiatric disorders or on certain ...

It's understood that Queen Camilla is recovering well, but continues to experience episodic symptoms of post-viral fatigue from the chest infection that the palace announced she had on Nov. 5.
Central diabetes insipidus, recently renamed arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D), [1] is a form of diabetes insipidus that is due to a lack of vasopressin (ADH) production in the brain. Vasopressin acts to increase the volume of blood (intravascularly), and decrease the volume of urine produced.
