A recent study has revealed that acute and chronic administration of the vasopressin V2 receptor (V2R) agonist dDAVP induced a marked increase of urinary albumin excretion (UAE) in healthy rats and humans (Bardoux P et al. Nephrol Dial Transplant 2003; 18: 497-506). The occurrence of an elevation of UAE among patients with chronic syndromes of inappropriate antidiuresis has not been reported.
