Diabetes insipidus is an uncommon disorder characterized by intense thirst, despite the drinking of fluids (polydipsia), and the excretion of large amounts of urine (polyuria).Excessive urination and extreme thirst is the result of inadequate output of the pituitary hormone ADH (antidiuretic hormone, also called vasopressin) or the lack of the normal response by the kidney to ADH. Prof. Ostoja Vucić tells us more about Signs, symptoms and therapies of Diabetes insipidus.
