The most prominent vasopressin analogues include desmopressin (dDAVP), terlipressin, and selepressin, each with distinct pharmacological profiles and clinical uses. Desmopressin, a V2 receptor agonist, is primarily used for treating diabetes insipidus and certain bleeding disorders. [3]
Desmopressin, sold under the trade name DDAVP among others, is a medication used to treat diabetes insipidus, bedwetting, hemophilia A, von Willebrand disease, and high blood urea levels. [1] In hemophilia A and von Willebrand disease, it should only be used for mild to moderate cases. [ 1 ]
[2] [3] It is used to treat abdominal distension following some surgeries, and in stomach roentgenography. [3] Vasopressin is a hormone that affects the kidneys and reduces urine flow. [4] Side effects may include stomach ache, vertigo, pale skin, flatulence, headache, or tremor. [3] [4] It is available as a generic medication. [5]

The well known antidiuretic effect of vasopressin occurs via activation of V 2 R. [1] Vasopressin regulates water excretion from the kidney by increasing the osmotic water permeability of the renal collecting duct – an effect that is explained by coupling of the V 2 R with the G s signaling pathway, which activates cAMP.
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.
