Central diabetes insipidus is a rare condition that involves extreme thirst and excessive urination. Your health care provider will ask about your medical history and symptoms. Vasopressin (desmopressin, DDAVP) is given either as a nasal spray, tablets, or injections. This controls urine output and fluid balance and prevents dehydration . The outcome depends on the cause. If treated, central diabetes insipidus usually does not cause severe problems or result in early death. When taking vasopressin and your body's thirst control is not normal, drinking more fluids than your body needs can cause dangerous electrolyte imbalance. If you have central diabetes insipidus, contact your provider if frequent urination or extreme thirst returns. Many of the cases may not be preventable. Prompt treatment of infections, tumors, and injuries may reduce risk. Updated by: Walead Latif, MD, Nephrologist and Clinical Associate Professor, Rutgers Medical School, Newark, NJ.
