Desmopressin acetate

Basic Description

Structure and Function:​​
· Desmopressin acetate is a synthetic nonapeptide analogue of natural vasopressin.
· Its primary action involves V2 receptor activation to enhance renal water reabsorption, thereby reducing urine production.
· While exhibiting mild vasoconstrictive properties, desmopressin acetate primarily functions as an antidiuretic agent.

​​In Vitro and In Vivo Studies:​​
· In vitro studies demonstrate desmopressin acetate's significant enhancement of water reabsorption in renal tubules.
· In vivo research confirms its efficacy in decreasing urinary output and increasing circulating blood volume.
· Clinically, desmopressin acetate is indicated for central diabetes insipidus management and hemostatic control.
