Generic Name: DDAVP (desmopressin)
For Primary Nocturnal Enuresis "My daughter is 8 years old now. She has suffered from bedwetting for the past 2 years. We have tried everything under the sun to help with the problem. She was so embarrassed when she would go to sleepovers and had to wear a 'pull-up'. I felt awful for her. I took her to the doctor, and he referred her to a urologist soon after. Her urologist put her on DDAVP almost 3 weeks ago. She takes 0.2 DDAVP every night about an hour before she goes to bed. We have been dry ever since, except the first night of taking the DDAVP. I believe this medicine is a godsend. My daughter is so happy, she is no longer embarrassed about wetting. We went yesterday for a follow-up with the doctor, and everything is going great."
For Diabetes Insipidus "I've been on this since 1989. The generic pill form works best! Before DDAVP I went to the bathroom around the clock and drank tons of water. The nasal spray was difficult at first since they didn't have my dosage right which I ended up in the hospital with my sodium at 119. But after the Drs got the dosage down and with the pills now, I've had no problems. Thank goodness for DDAVP."
For Diabetes Insipidus "I love this medication. It works fast and more efficiently than the pill form. After pituitary surgery I struggled for 8 months trying to get my bladder activity under control. I could not control my urine flow with the pills and if I was standing in line at the grocery store there was nothing I could do but face the embarrassment of having urine stream down my legs. With the nose spray I can dose right there when the urge hits and it sustains me for a few minutes until my situation is more condusive to taking care of things. The nose spray is way more predictable then the pill. Thank God I have it no matter what it costs."
For Diabetes Insipidus "I've been on the nasal spray nightly for 7 years since pituitary removal surgery. It's wonderful, expensive but it works. I have found the generic version not as good, needs to be refrigerated where the DDAVP has a normal shelf life."
For Diabetes Insipidus "I was diagnosed with diabetes insipidus a little over a year ago. This medication is absolutely a life saver. I love this medication and it's the only reason that I can live a semi-normal life!"
For Diabetes Insipidus "I couldn't have a normal life without it!"
For Diabetes Insipidus "This is a fast acting medication. It is easy to travel with and store."
For Diabetes Insipidus "Works great but you need to take it on time."
For Diabetes Insipidus "I like this medicine when I am on a trip and it does work fast but it's expensive."
