In Treatment of Diabetes insipidus
Dpressin Nasal Spray is given as a nasal spray as its absorption is greatly increased when taken through the nose and it brings about rapid action of controlling thirst and also reduces the urge to urinate often. This helps to manage these symptoms in diabetes insipidus.
In Treatment of Bed-wetting

How Dpressin Nasal Spray works
Dpressin Nasal Spray is a synthetic form of vasopressin (natural hormone that balances water). It is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream through the inner surface of the nose. Once absorbed, it works by causing reabsorption of water from the kidneys which controls excessive thirst and urination in diabetes insipidus. It also helps decrease night-time urine production in multiple sclerosis.

FAQs
What precautions do I need to take while on Dpressin Nasal Spray?
Follow all the instructions given by your doctor strictly. Restrict water intake after taking Dpressin Nasal Spray as drinking too much water can lead to fluid overload, which is a serious side effect. Try not to swallow water while swimming.
How long do I need to give Dpressin Nasal Spray to my child for bedwetting?
Dpressin Nasal Spray is usually prescribed for 3 months for bedwetting. After 3 months, your doctor will stop the medicine for a week to assess whether your child still needs Dpressin Nasal Spray or not.
Does Dpressin Nasal Spray cure bed wetting?
No, Dpressin Nasal Spray does not cure bedwetting, but it helps control bedwetting. It works by replacing a hormone (vasopressin) that is normally produced in the body to help balance the amount of water and salt.
Does Dpressin Nasal Spray make you gain weight?
No, Dpressin Nasal Spray itself does not cause weight gain. Dpressin Nasal Spray may cause fluid overload which may in turn cause weight gain.
