Abnormalities in fluid volume and electrolyte composition are common and important clinical disorders. Drugs that block specific transport functions of the renal tubules are valuable clinical tools in the treatment of these disorders. Although various agents that increase urine volume (diuretics) have been described since antiquity, it was not until 1937 that carbonic anhydrase inhibitors were first described and not until 1957 that a much more useful and powerful diuretic agent (chlorothiazide) became available. Technically, a “diuretic” is an agent that increases urine volume, whereas a “natriuretic” causes an increase in renal sodium excretion and an “aquaretic” increases excretion of solute-free water. Because natriuretics almost always also increase water excretion, they are usually called diuretics. Osmotic diuretics and antidiuretic hormone antagonists (see Agents That Alter Water Excretion) are aquaretics that are not directly natriuretic.

Desmopressin
Lypressin
Terlipressin
Felypressin
Argipressin
ornipressin
Desmopressin: It is a selective V2-receptor agonist and is more potent than vasopressin as an antidiuretic. It has negligible vasoconstrictor action. It is administered by oral, nasal and parenteral routes. Lypressin: It acts on both V1- and V2-receptors. It is less potent but longer acting than vasopressin. It is administered parenterally. Terlipressin: It is a prodrug of vasopressin with selective V1 action. It is administered intravenously. Felypressin: It is a synthetic analogue of vasopressin. It is mainly used for its vasoconstrictor (V1 ) action along with local anaesthetics to prolong the duration of action. Felypressin should be avoided in pregnancy because of its oxytocic (uterine stimulant) activity.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
3. Antidiuretic
Antidiuretics (more precisely ‘anti-
aquaretics’, because they inhibit water
excretion without affecting salt excretion)
are drugs that reduce urine volume,
particularly in diabetes insipidus (DI)
which is their primary indication.
4. Classification of Anti diuretic
Agents:
Antidiuretic hormone:-
(ADH,Vasopressin),Desmopressin,Lypressin,
Terlipressin
Thiazide diuretics: Amiloride.
Miscellaneous: Indomethacin, Chlorpropamide,
Carbamazepine
5. ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE: SYNTHESIS &
RELEASE OF ADH
Osmoreceptor- Hypothalamus & Volume receptor- Left atrium, ventricles & pulmonary veins
primarily regulate the rate of ADH release
Transported to nerve endings in median eminence & pars nervosa
Hypothalamus nerve cell bodies synthesize ADH along with protein Neurophysin
Posterior pituitary gland secrete ADH
Generate Impulse from baroreceptor
Stimuli (rise in plasma osmolarity and Contraction of extra cellular fluid)
6. ADH/AVP ( VASOPRESSIN)
RECEPTOR DISTRIBUTION:
G protein coupled cell membrane
receptors: Two subtypes
◦ A) V1 receptors - Function mainly through
phospholipase C-IP3/DAG pathway Release
Ca+ Cause vasoconstriction, visceral smooth
muscle contraction, glycogenolysis. Platelet
aggregation, ACTH release.
1.V1a- Present on vascular and other smooth
muscles platelets, liver.
2.V1b- Localized to the anterior pituitary.
◦ B) V2 receptors- Present on collecting duct
(CD) cells in the kidney regulate their water
permeability through CAMP production.
7. ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE (Argenine Vasopressin-AVP)
◦ It is a nonapeptide secreted by posterior pituitary (neurohypophysis) along with
oxytocin.
◦ It is synthesized in the hypothalamic (supraoptic and paraventricular) nerve cell
bodies as a large precursor peptide along with its binding protein
‘neurophysin’.
◦ Both are transported down the axons to the nerve endings in the median
eminence and pars nervosa.
◦ Osmoreceptors present in hypothalamus and volume receptors present in left
atrium, ventricles and pulmonary veins primarily regulate the rate of ADH
release governed by body hydration.
Actions
◦ Kidney -AVP acts on the collecting duct (CD) principal cells to increase their
water permeability— water from the duct lumen diffuses to the interstitium by
equilibrating with the hyperosmolar renal medulla
◦ Mechanism of action
Vasopressin is instrumental in rapid adjustments of water excretion according to the
state of body hydration, as well as in dealing with conditions prevailing over longterm
Pharmacokinetics
AVP is inactive orally because it is destroyed by trypsin. It can be
administered by any parenteral route or by intranasal application.
plasma t½ is short ~25 min. However, the action of aqueous
vasopressin lasts 3–4 hours.

11. PHARMACOKINETICS OF ADH/AVP (
VASOPRESSIN)
Absorption- Orally inactive because
destroyed by trypsin
Metabolism- Liver
Excretion- Kidney
ANALOGUES OF ADH/AVP (
VASOPRESSIN)
◦ Lypressin- 8-lysin analogues; acts on both
receptor; longer duration of action;
◦ Terlipressin- Synthetic prodrug; mainly used
for bleeding esophageal varices.
◦ Desmopressin- Synthetic peptide; selective
V2 agonist; 12times more potent than all; But
produces systemic side effects which are
overcomes by nasal application.
12. VASOPRESSIN ANALOGUES
◦ Lypressin
It is 8-lysine vasopressin.
Though somewhat less potent than AVP, it acts on both V1 and V2 receptors
and has longer duration of action (4–6 hours).
It is being used in place of AVP—mostly for V1 receptor mediated actions.
TM- PETRESIN, VASOPIN 20 IU/ml inj; 10 IU i.m. or s.c. or 20 IU diluted in
100–200 ml of dextrose solution and infused i.v. over 10–20 min.
◦ Terlipressin
This synthetic prodrug of vasopressin is specifically used for bleeding
esophageal varices; may produce less severe adverse effects than lypressin.
Dose: 2 mg i.v., repeat 1–2 mg every 4–6 hours as needed.
TM- GLYPRESSIN 1 mg freeze dried powder with 5 ml diluent for inj, T-
PRESSIN, TERLINIS 1 mg/10 ml inj.
◦ Desmopressin (dDAVP)
This synthetic peptide is a selective V2 agonist; 12 times more potent
antidiuretic than AVP, but has negligible vasoconstrictor activity.
Dose: Intranasal: Adults 10–40 μg/day in 2–3 divided doses, children 5–10 μg
at bed time. Oral: 0.1–0.2 mg TDS. Parenteral (s.c. or i.v.) 2–4 μg/day in 2–3
divided doses.
TM- MINIRIN 100 μg/ml nasal spray (10 μg per actuation); 100 μg/ml
intranasal solution in 2.5 ml bottle with applicator; 0.1 mg tablets; 4 μg/ml inj.
◦ Uses
A. Based on V2 actions (Desmopressin is the drug of choice)
Diabetes insipidus, Bedwetting in children and nocturia in Adults, Haemophilia, von
Willebrand’s disease
13. USES
A. Based on V2 action:
◦ Diabetes insipidus (DI)- DI of pituitary origin
(neurogenic) important indication for vasopressin but
ineffective in renal DI (nephrogenic).
◦ Bedwetting in children & nocturia in adults-
Desmopressin reduce urine volume resulting control
nocturia condition.
◦ Renal concentration test- 5-10 U i/m causes maximum
urine retention and urine concentration.
◦ Haemophilia, Von Willebrand’s disease- It is genetic
disorder where missing or defective vonWillebrand factor
(VWF), a clotting protein is observed. While ADP releases
clotting factor.
B. Based on V1 action:
◦ Bleeding esophageal varices: Vasopressin stops the
bleeding by constricting mesenteric blood vesscles and
reducing blood flow though liver & allowing clot formation.
◦ Before abdominal radiography: Lypressin used to drive
out gases form bowel facilitate easy abdominal radiography.
14. ADVERSE DRUG EFFECT:
◦ Vasopressin, lypressin or terlipressin are nonselsctive
derivatives so shows more side effects as compaire to
desmopressin (V2 selective).
◦ Transient headache and flusing- common.
◦ Nasal irritation, congestion, rhinitis, ulceration and
epistaxis(nose bleeding)
◦ Systemic effects- belching, nausea, abdominal cramps, pallor,
urge to defecate, backache in females (due to uterine
contraction).
◦ Fluid retention and hyponatraemia.
◦ ADP causes bradycardia, increase cardiac afterload and
precipitate angina by constricting coronary vessels.
CONTRAINDICATION:
◦ Patients with;
◦ Ischemic heart disease,
◦ Hypertension,
◦ chronic nephritis
◦ psychogenic polydipsia.
◦ Urticaria and other allergies
15. 2.THIAZIDES DERIVATIVES:
Actually thiazide and high ceiling diuretics are
diuretic drug but which provides antidiuretic
effect in Diabetes insipidus. high ceiling
diuretics are not used because is having short
and strong action.
Thiazides reduce urine volume in both pituitary
origin and renal Diabetes insipidus.
Used when ADH is ineffective.
Mechanism of Action
◦ Actual mechanism is unknown; But thiazides may
Induce sustained electrolyte depletion resulting
Glomerular filtrate completely reabsorbed,
Continuous electrolyte loss causes decreases
plasma osmolarity Antidiuretic action.
◦ Thiazides reduces g.f.r. and produce fluid load on
tubules.
16. 3. MISCELLANEOUS
DERIVATIVES:
These all are supportive derivatives for
antidiuretic activity: Amloride
hydrochloride is a pyrazine-carbonyl-
guanidine it is a drug of choice for
lithium induced nephrogenic Diabetes
insipidus.
Indomethacin: Reduce polyuria in
renal Diabetes insipidus.
Chlorpropamide: It sensitizes ADH to
acts on kidney cells.
Carbamazepine
