We investigated whether clinical characteristics influenced desmopressin dose requirements in 100 children with central diabetes insipidus. Extremely large doses were associated with acquired etiology (P = .04), greater body mass index z score, intact thirst, and additional pituitary hormone deficiencies (P < .001).en-USPublisher PolicyAdolescentDeamino Arginine VasopressinDose-Response Relationship, DrughyponatremiaArticle
