An increase in in blood alcohol level will, if high enough, reduce the secretion of anti diuretic hormone (ADH), witch will in turn effect the kidneys ability to reasorb water in the tubules.

What hormones increase blood volume and blood pressure and how?
aldosterone ADH
When ADH is produced what happens?
If there is too little water in the blood, the hypothalamus will detect this and more ADH (Anti-Diuretic Hormone) will be produced. The increase in ADH will cause an increase in the permeability of the collecting duct in the kidney and so more water is reabsorbed into the blood. :)
What risks are associated with ADH tests?
Certain drugs can either increase or decrease ADH levels. Drugs that increase ADH levels include acetaminophen, barbiturates, cholinergic agents, estrogen, nicotin. Drugs that decrease ADH levels include alcohol, beta-adrenergic agents,.
What is the enzyme that detoxifies alcohol?
ADH (alcohol dehydrogenase) ADH (alcohol dehydrogenase)
How would Hypothalamic tumor resulting in excess ADH production has what effect on the blood pressure?
The increased ADH (vasopressin) would cause water retention and increased volume of body fluids. This would make the heart work harder to pump the increased volume through the body resulting in higher blood pressure.
What organ begins to produce more urine due to the short term effects of alcohol use?
When you drink alcohol, the posterior pituitary produces too little AntiDiuretic Hormone (ADH) when you drink alcohol. The function of ADH normally is to increase the water reabsorption from your collecting tubules in your kidney and back into your blood. Basically, ADH is an anti - diuretic (diuretic is something that increases the water concentration in your urine) so it normally decreases your urine output and in turn keeps your body well hydrated by bringing water back into your blood. When there is a decrease in ADH, less water is brought back into your blood and ends up going out of your kidneys, out to your bladder and your urine output increases.
Why is it important that people release more ADH when they sweat?
Because ADH controls blood water level by triggering the uptake of water in kidneys.
What triggers ADH?
the high osmolarity of blood acts upon the osmoreceptor of hypothalmus cause the release of adh low plasma volume increase plasma cholecystokinin
What factors stimulate an increase in ADH secrection?
ADH secretion is stimulated by increase in plasma osmolarity. Example:ingestion of Na+ will cause the plasma osmolarity to increase and trigger the pituitary gland to produce ADH.
What hormone would increase in the blood during dehydration?
Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH). • ADH helps to avoid dehydration or water overload - prevents urine formation
How does ecstasy affect ADH?
MDMA (ECSTASY) will increase ADH
Is ADH inhibitated by alcohol?
Yes, it is.
