商品名：DDAVP
Synthetic peptide similar to antidiuretic hormone (ADH). It produces similar effects as natural ADH and is used to treat diabetes insipidus (DI) in animals. This action is related to stimulation of permeability to water to increase water reabsorption in the distal renal tubule. The difference between DDAVP and natural ADH is that DDAVP is longer acting and produces fewer vasoconstriction effects. In addition to the hormone effects, in humans administration of DDAVP results in a twofold to fivefold increase in the plasma von Willebrand factor. It may induce a 50% increase in von Willebrand fact
Desmopressin is used as replacement therapy for patients with DI and also has been used for treatment of patients with mild to moderate von Willebrand’s disease prior to surgery or other procedure that may cause bleeding. However, the response in von Willebrand–deficient dogs is not as consistent or as great as in people.
