    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Vasopressin analogues are chemicals similar in function but not necessarily similar in structure to vasopressin ADH , such as desmopressin . Desmopressin is administered as an oral spray to treat diseases where ADH is either not being produced in sufficient amounts, or vasopressin s receptor biochemistry receptor s are not being stimulated by the vasopressin. An example of desmopressin s use is for childhood bed wetting, where it is believed that children s circadian rhythms are not synchronized with normal light dark cycles, and consequentially the ADH surge normal children experience at night is not experienced in these children. Taking a desmopressin dose 30 45 minutes before sleeping results in concentrated urine production, and the urination reflex experienced when the bladder fills above a certain level is not triggered.
