La Presse Médicale, 2021 Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a disorder characterized by a high hypotonic urinary output of more than 50ml per kg body weight per 24 hours, with associated polydipsia of more than 3 liters a day [1,2]. Central DI results from inadequate secretion and usually deficient synthesis of Arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the hypothalamus or pituitary gland. Besides

Pediatrics in Review, 2020 The differential diagnosis of diabetes insipidus involves the distinction between central or nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and primary polydipsia. Differentiation is important because treatment strategies vary; the wrong treatment can be dangerous. Reliable differentiation is difficult especially in patients with primary polydipsia or partial forms of

Central DI results from a deficiency of the hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the pituitary gland or the hypothalamus, whereas nephrogenic DI results from resistance to AVP in the kidneys.

Delay in desmopressin therapy: Disaster in waiting
Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics, Volume 47, Issue 12, Page 2376-2378, December 2022., 2022 There is little information on the onset of hypernatremia after withdrawal of desmopressin. We present a case of an elderly woman with central DI whose serum sodium jumped from 141 to 171 mEq/L after 48‐72 h of holding oral desmopressin. Based on this precipitous onset of DI crisis, we recommend not withholding desmopressin for more than 24 h. Abstract
