Desmopressin Acetate Nasal Spray Desmopressin acetate is prescribed for animals with central diabetes insipidus (a condition that happens when the pituitary glands don't release enough vasopressin). It’s a synthetic replacement for vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone or ADH, which is a hormone produced by a dog’s pituitary gland that helps regulate urine production by the kidneys and the amount of water that the body retains. Though the FDA has not approved it for veterinary use, vets can prescribe it safely and legally. The drug is available in tablet form, though it’s less common for dogs to take it orally. Vets most often prescribe it in the form of a 10-microgram solution that can be administered nasally or through the eyes.  All prescription items are Non-Refundable and Non-Returnable.

Ingredients of Desmopressin Nasal Spray Desmopressin 0.01% Nasal Spray contains the active ingredient Desmopressin Acetate, a synthetic analog of the natural hormone vasopressin. It also includes inactive ingredients such as sodium chloride, citric acid, and benzalkonium chloride, which help stabilize the solution and ensure its efficacy. How Desmopressin Nasal Spray Works Desmopressin works by binding to V2 receptors in the kidneys, increasing water reabsorption and reducing urine production. This action helps to concentrate urine, reducing the frequency and volume of urination, and is particularly beneficial in managing conditions like diabetes insipidus and nocturnal enuresis. By mimicking vasopressin, Desmopressin restores the body's natural water balance. Dosage and Administration  Frequency Administer as prescribed by your healthcare provider, typically 1-2 times daily. For diabetes insipidus, the usual dosage is 10-20 mcg (1-2 sprays) daily. For bed-wetting, administer the spray 1 hour before bedtime. Consistency Use the spray at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels of the medication in your body. Regular usage ensures optimal management of your condition and reduces the risk of symptoms returning. Desmopressin Acetate Side Effects  Precautions Monitor sodium levels regularly to prevent hyponatremia (low sodium levels).
