desmopressin for adults

My father had a brain tumor removed and now has to take a nasal spray called Desmopressin. His endocranologist only wants him to use it one time a day, but the problem is he goes to the bathroom sometimes every 15 minutes!!!! He is also on 1/2 mg of Dexamethasone and that's part of the problem. Sometimes he takes two puffs a day but the doctor doesn't want him to do that daily.

t seem to be an issue. Then my urologist gave me desmopressin and oxybutinin, nether of which have worked. I've wet the bed every night for the longest time-I might have a random night where I don't but yeah it's just random. I'm completely soaked when I wake up, and I've developed diaper rash and I have clothes that are turning brown and it's gross and it's ruining my life. Any advice?

t mention in your question what medication you were taking. Commonly central DI is treated with desmopressin. Desmopressin works by limiting the amount of water passed in the urine. I don't know why you would suddenly notice a decrease in your symptoms after 34 years. I would recommend making an appointment with your regular doctor to see what might be causing this. Until you can be seen, it is important that you remain aware of your fluid intake and output.

Hello, I am 20 years old female and I wet my bed (urinate) at night sometimes. Can you suggest any logical explanation for this problem? I do not have any other health problems.

I have testing lab for my thyroid since 1995 and all results have come in " normal" range. meanwhile i was diagnosed 10yrs ago with pituitary microadenoma on CT- Scan with high blood levels of FSH LH TESTO. I was taking cabergoline for 10 yrs but I still feel bad. I have a swinging mood some times hyperexcited but mostly tired, constipation, right rib and colon pain and pimples on my back. my skin is dried since childhood with recurrent hair folliculitis and athlete foot for 25 years.

today the consultant gave me tablets called desmopressin acetate. i understand they reduce urine amounts. will try but cant see them working well. Any new ideas or anyone with same prob please help.

Is there a medication for Diabetes Insipidus other than Desmopressin? The headaches as a side affect are dibilitating. This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/557217'>peuatrygland diabetts</a>.

DDAVP, Stimate, Minirin) is a synthetic replacement for vasopressin, the hormone that reduces urine production. It may be taken nasally, or as a tablet. Lack of the hormone vasopressin is more common in men than in women. Typically, those that do not produce enough will "correct" by the end of puberty (19-25 years old for men). Check with your urologist about the possibility of this treatment. Best of luck.

I tried Effexor for only three days when it was given to me to treat migraines and I couldn't tolerate the side effects. Don't remember now what all they were- just that it was intolerable for me. It wasn't given to me for POTS- it was before I was diagnosed with POTS I tried it.

Of course not, but it is a book for adults. Sex books for adults do not make us ****** either, altho Im sure them men wish it did.... Lighten Up as El says! I say choose your battles and this is just not one of them for me..... Sticks and Stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me comes to mind and Im not gonna read it to my grandchildren at bedtime so big whoop.

however i usually am carefull as to what i take as it seems that if i drink alchol i get really bad pains for days and ph goes up. i cant take nsaids,dihydrocodein and some other medications including diuretics as they all seem to cause me kidney pain. the last tests shwed that my kidneys were ok. however i am having problems with my heart rate and am in process getting a POTS diagnosis.

If still the symptoms persist then medical treatment with desmopressin, imipramine and anticholinergics can be tried. Hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing. Kind regards.

I'm 18 years old and pregnant for the second time with the same person. I lost the first child cause my mother pressured me into abortion. Me and the father aren't together and probably never will again. I don't come from a wealthy family but I do work my butt off. I decided I'm keeping this child no matter what. But I just told my mom tonight and she is making this so hard. She is not supportive at all. She keeps telling me my life will be over and all this stuff.

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced diabetes insipidus? The reason for the test is because I have been extremely thirsty and urinating almost every 1.5 hours a day. I received a copy of the test results. They tested my ADH level (arginine vasopressin) The results are L<1.0 Range:1.0-13.3 They say there are different types of diabetes insipidus, basically that the kidneys are not doing what they are supposed to do or a pituitary issue.

I have took her to the doctors, she prescribed mas been taking which she has been on for a year now. No improvement! When I first took her in, I was concerned because of the large amounts and the very strong odor it causes along with inflammation to the surrounding skin. All urine test came back fine ( urine sample). However she had no reason why the odor was so bad. I even had our well water tested and it was fine.

Tdap should replace a single dose of Td for adults aged 19 through 64 years who have not received a dose of Tdap previously. Adults with uncertain or incomplete history of primary vaccination series with tetanus and diphtheria toxoid–containing vaccines should begin or complete a primary vaccination series.
