How It 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.
