1 A vasopressin-mediated diminution of potassium excretion in water-loaded man. Potassium arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
2 Intravenous vasopressin (1-3 mu-units min-1 kg-1) had an antidiuretic effect on water-loaded man and also diminished potassium excretion. Potassium arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
3 After terminating the infusion of vasopressin, the fall in potassium output persisted longer than the antidiuresis, which makes it unlikely that the antikaliuretic effect of vasopressin is secondary to its effect on urine flow. Potassium arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
4 The unchanged antikaliuretic effect of vasopressin after aspirin treatment, together with its persistence after terminating the infusion, suggest the possible existence of vasopressin-mediated potassium absorption in the distal nephron in certain circumstances. Potassium arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
