  • Title: A comparison of des-amino arginine vasopressin with pitressin tannate as diagnostic agents.
    Author: Hocken AG.
    Journal: N Z Med J; 1979 May 23; 89(636):381-2. PubMed ID: 289006.
    Abstract:
    A reappraisal of a previous opinion, and subsequent comparative work leads to the conclusion that 40 microgram desamino arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) administered instransally, is a preferable dose to 20 microgram to use as a urinary concentrating agent in the diagnostic context, and that it is quite comparable to the standard agent, five units of pitressin tannate in oil.
