What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

DDAVP is a prescription medication for treatment of diabetes insipidus. It works by replenishing vasopressin levels in the body to counter excessive thirst and the need to urinate frequently that come with diabetes insipidus and increase risk of dehydration. Less commonly DDAVP is used to control nighttime bedwetting for children. Vasopressin deficiency can also occur to people who have suffered a head injury or undergone brain surgery, and DDAVP may be prescribed in these instances too.

You can buy DDAVP medication with a doctor’s prescription from your local pharmacy, and your best price on it will be when you order medication online from Canada Drugs Direct.

Directions

The standard DDAVP dose is to take the medication 2 or 3 times a day as directed by your doctor. Children taking DDAVP for bedwetting should limit the amount of fluid they drink after dinner, and especially in the hour before taking a DDAVP dose.

It is important to not exceed the dosage specified in your prescription. If you are not seeing enough improvement with using the medication, then you should consult with your doctor again.

Ingredients

The active ingredient in DDAVP is Desmopressin.

Cautions

Tell your doctor if you have any history of kidney disease, high blood pressure, cystic fibrosis, hyponatremia (low blood sodium) or heart problems like blocked blood vessels or heart failure before beginning on DDAVP.

It is advisable to limit alcohol consumption while using DDAVP.

This medication can cause water and mineral imbalances in the body, and these can affect some people more than others.

Interactions

There is the possibility of drug interaction risks between DDAVP and other RX medications, including diuretic medications like furosemide. It is best to tell your doctor of all medications you are currently taking before receiving a prescription and then proceeding to buy DDAVP medication.

Side Effects

DDAVP side effects are uncommon, but some people may experience headache, nausea, upset stomach, or facial flushing. If DDAVP side effects are seen, then you should discontinue use and consult with your doctor again regarding water diabetes treatment alternatives.
