  2. Modified-release dosage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified-release_dosage

    Modified-release dosage is a mechanism that (in contrast to immediate-release dosage) delivers a drug with a delay after its administration (delayed-release dosage) or for a prolonged period of time (extended-release [ER, XR, XL] dosage) or to a specific target in the body (targeted-release dosage). [1] Sustained-release dosage forms are dosage ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetes_insipidus

    Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a condition characterized by large amounts of dilute urine and increased thirst. [1] The amount of urine produced can be nearly 20 liters per day. [ 1 ] Reduction of fluid has little effect on the concentration of the urine. [ 1 ]

  4. Intensive insulin therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_insulin_therapy

    Basal insulin: the insulin that controls blood glucose levels between meals and overnight. It controls glucose in the fasting state. Boluses: the insulin that is released when food is eaten or to correct a high reading. Another device used in intensive insulinotherapy is the injection port. An injection port is a small disposable device ...

  5. Depot injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depot_injection

    Insulin glargine, for example, is designed to precipitate after injection so it can be slowly absorbed by the body over a longer period than regular insulin would be. [13] Depot injections of insulins have been studied to better replicate the body's natural basal rate of insulin production, and which can be activated by light to control the ...

  6. Central diabetes insipidus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_diabetes_insipidus

    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.

  7. Insulin (medication) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_(medication)

    The central problem for those requiring external insulin is picking the right dose of insulin and the right timing. Physiological regulation of blood glucose, as in the non-diabetic, would be best. Increased blood glucose levels after a meal is a stimulus for prompt release of insulin from the pancreas.

  8. Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephrogenic_diabetes_insipidus

    Both cause excessive urination (hence the similarity in name), but whereas diabetes insipidus is a problem with the production of antidiuretic hormone (neurogenic diabetes insipidus) or the kidneys' response to antidiuretic hormone (nephrogenic diabetes insipidus), diabetes mellitus causes polyuria via osmotic diuresis, due to the high blood ...

  9. Insulin glargine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_glargine

    Insulin glargine sold under the brand name Lantus among others is a long-acting modified form of medical insulin, used in the management of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. [7] It is injected just under the skin . [ 7 ]
