Indications
(1) Treatment of central diabetes insipidus. After the drug can reduce urinary excretion, reduce urinary frequency and reduce nocturia.
(2) Treatment of nocturnal enuresis (patients aged 5 years or older).
(3) Test the renal urine concentration function, and carry out the differential diagnosis of renal function.
(4) For hemophilia and other bleeding diseases, this product can shorten the bleeding time and prevent bleeding. It can reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss and postoperative oozing; especially in conjunction with reasonably controlled blood pressure during surgery, it can reduce intraoperative bleeding from different mechanisms, and reduce postoperative oozing, which can play a better role in blood protection.
Treatment of diabetes insipidus
Diabetes insipidus is primarily a disorder of water metabolism characterized by excess urine output, polydipsia, hypoosmolarity, and hypernatremia. Partial or complete deficiency of vasopressin (central diabetes insipidus), or renal insufficiency of vasopressin (nephrogenic diabetes insipidus) can be onset. Clinically, diabetes insipidus is similar to primary polydipsia, a condition in which excessive fluid intake is caused by a malfunction of the regulatory mechanism or abnormal thirst. Contrary to primary polydipsia, the increase in water intake in patients with diabetes insipidus is a corresponding response to changes in osmotic pressure or blood volume.
