Abstract
A 23 yr old woman with diabetes insipidus who was previously treated with pitressin, pituitary snuff and chlorpropamide, was treated with DDAVP [1-deamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin] during pregnancy. DDAVP concentrations immunoassayed as vasopressin were determined in maternal serum and breast milk. Oxytocin antibodies were also determined in maternal serum.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
