Effects of synthesized desmopressin, analog of antidiuretic hormone, and water-salt supplement on the renal function and orthostatic stability were studied in 6 normal male subjects after 12-hr. head-down tilt (12 degrees). The combination of water-salt homeostasis normalizing methods was effective in retaining excessive liquid and salts. Moreover, tolerance of the standard 20-min. passive standing test improved significantly. Hence, it was demonstrated that intake of synthetic vasopressin analog combined with WSS counteracted hypohydration of organism due to HDT and improved orthostatic tolerance.
