DDAVP MELT (active ingredient: desmopressin) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Diabetes Insipidus: DDAVP MELT is used to treat central diabetes insipidus, a condition characterized by excessive thirst and urine production due to a deficiency of antidiuretic hormone (ADH).
  2. Hemophilia A and von Willebrand’s Disease: It is indicated for the management of mild to moderate hemophilia A and von Willebrand’s disease by increasing levels of clotting factors in the blood.

DDAVP MELT belongs to a class of drugs known as antidiuretic hormones, which work by increasing the reabsorption of water in the kidneys and promoting clotting factor release, thus helping to manage the symptoms of diabetes insipidus and bleeding disorders.

DDAVP melt comes in the form of Rapid Dissolve tablets, which are taken orally by mouth usually 2 to 3 times a day or as directed by your doctor. The tablet dissolves rapidly on the tongue and should be swallowed whole, do not chew, or break it.

The recommended dosage for DDAVP melt may vary depending on the individual patient and their response to treatment. The suitable starting dose in adults and children is 60 micrograms three times daily, administered sublingually (under the tongue). This dosage regimen should then be adjusted as needed based on the patient’s response to treatment. It is worth noting that the recommended dose for women may be lower than for men due to differences in response to the medication.

Take the tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you are taking DDAVP melt for controlling excessive urination at night and you miss a dose, skip the missed dose, and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
