What is Minirin
DesmopressinThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryDesmopressin is a synthetic hormone used to control the amount of water in the body. It is typically used to treat conditions such as nocturnal enuresis (bed-wetting) and diabetes insipidus. It can also be used to treat mild cases of hemophilia and von Willebrand's disease. Desmopressin is available in various forms, including intranasal solution, intravenous solution, oral tablet, and oral lyophilisate. Nocdurna, a form of desmopressin acetate, was approved by the FDA in 2018 to treat nocturia

Effectiveness
How Minirin Affects PatientsDesmopressin is a drug that imitates the natural antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in the body. It works by stimulating receptors in the kidneys to absorb more water and produce less urine. Desmopressin is especially effective in increasing the activity of a protein called factor VIII, which is deficient in people with hemophilia and von Willebrand's disease Type I. Desmopressin does not have the same effect on blood pressure as ADH does. When taken as a nasal spray, desmopressin is less effective than when taken as an injection.
How Minirin works in the bodyWhen desmopressin binds to special receptors in the cells of the distal tubules and collecting ducts of the nephron, it triggers a series of reactions in the cell. This causes more water channels (aquaporins) to be inserted into the membrane of the cell, which makes it more permeable to water.
When to interrupt dosage
The dosage of Minirin is contingent upon the diagnosed ailment, including Minor Surgical Procedures, Pituitary Gland and Surgery, Hemophilia A. The amount is dependent on the technique of delivery as stated in the table hereunder.Condition

Minirin Toxicity & Overdose RiskTaking too much desmopressin can lead to low sodium levels in the blood (hyponatremia). Symptoms of hyponatremia can include seizures, confusion, drowsiness, headaches, irregular heartbeat, and swelling. If you have taken too much desmopressin, you should reduce the dose or stop using it altogether. You should also get your sodium levels checked and seek medical treatment.

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.What is Minirin used for?
"Minirin tablets are indicated to treat cranial diabetes insipidus and primary nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting) in patients from 6 years of age who are refractory to an alarm system or for whom an alarm system is not appropriate."
Answered by AI
Is Minirin over the counter?
"This medicine only requires a prescription from your doctor if you have low levels of specific agents that result in less bleeding."
Answered by AI
How do you give a Minirin?
"Place the Minirin Melt under your tongue. It will dissolve without needing any water. Please read the instruction leaflet that comes with the Minirin Melt."
Answered by AI
How long can you take Minirin for?
"The recommended amount of time to take Minirin Tablets for bedwetting is 3 months. After this period, it is recommended that you take a week break from the medication to see if the bedwetting has stopped. If it has not stopped, continue taking the medication for another 3 months. Your doctor will advise you on the best course of action."
