Central diabetes insipidus results from inappropriate production of the antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin and can ameliorated by hormone supplementation.
There are several aquired conditions which result in syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone
secretion (SIADH).

Polyuria can be remarkably reduced with AVP administration. |
