Modern Approach in Treatment of Diabetes Insipidus

Abstract: In this paper we have reviewed the position of desmopressin in the treatment of diabetes insipidus. Desmopressin is a synthetic analog of vasopressin, with more pronounced antidiuretic effect. It is treatment of choice in substitution therapy of diabetes insipidus. Its application before sleeping time can reduce nocturnal enuresis, so it has a place in the treatment of enuresis nocturna. Antidiuretic effect of desmopressin is the result of agonistic effect on V2 receptors in the renal tubules. The efficacy and… Show more

“…The possible expression and function of putative VRs variants have not been clarified here, nevertheless, in the present study, we report that HCT8 cells express functional V1a and V2 receptors which are sensitive to the action of dDAVP. dDAVP is a stable analog of vasopressin and it is widely applied clinically to treat bleeding disorders, nocturnal polyuria, and central diabetes insipidus due to the antidiuretic properties mediated by the V2R (Mannucci, 1997;Kapić et al, 2005;Weiss and Everaert, 2019). However, affinity binding assays showed that dDAVP exhibits differences in the affinity binding across species (Chini and Manning, 2007).…”

“…Either of these agents is effective in treating patients with DI. In the acute intensive care unit setting, aqueous vasopressin may be preferred due to its short duration of effect (2–8 hours) compared with that of desmopressin (6–18 hours) as DI may be a transient clinical situation 109 , 110 . Vasopressin can be given subcutaneously in doses of 4–10 units every 6 hours as needed for urine output exceeding 200 mL 34 .…”

“…DDAVP is a synthetic form of vasopressin that has less potent (2000‐ to 3000‐fold) vasopressor effects than vasopressin. It has a much longer duration of effect and is the preferred therapy for permanent or slowly resolving DI 110 . It is available as intranasal, oral, or IV forms.…”
