| ==Overview==
| |
| '''Conivaptan''' ('''vaprisol'''®, YM 087) is a non-peptide inhibitor of [[antidiuretic hormone]] (vasopressin). It was approved in 2004 for [[hyponatremia]] (low blood [[sodium]] levels) caused by [[syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone]] (SIADH), and there is some evidence it may be effective in [[heart failure]]. It is marketed by [[Astellas Pharma|Astellas Pharma Inc]].
| |
|
| |
| ==Mechanism of Action==
| |
| Conivaptan inhibits both isotypes of the [[vasopressin receptor]] ([[Arginine vasopressin receptor 1A|V1a]] and [[Arginine vasopressin receptor 2|V2]]). Effectively, it causes [[iatrogenic]] nephrogenic [[diabetes insipidus]].
