A member asked:
Doc wants 2 do anti diuretic hormone (adh) test for diabetes insipidus. thought u had 2 b deprived of fluid during adh (vasopressin) test...or is that necessary?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There is a test called water deprivation test which is the gold standard for testing but pt's have to be monitored closely. Therefore, sometimes we may give a trial of ADH (vasopressin) as a pill to see if the symptoms resolve after it has been verified pt's are making >3l of urine a day.
