I'd think it'd have a net dehydrating effect...unless it somehow acts as a vasodilator and makes already leaky blood vessels even leakier. I can't find anything about vasopressin acting as a vasoconstrictor except in large doses, though.

Probably not a good idea to imbibe anyway due to interactions with painkillers and all that, though.
