these results suggest that the long-acting nature of ddavp may be attributed , in addition to its gradual absorption from nasal mucosa and slow metabolic clearance , to a higher or persistent biological activity at the receptor site in the kidney and that a nearly physiological level of antidiuretic hormone may cause de novo synthesis of cyclic amp in the kidney and exert its biological action .
