Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Desmopressin Acetate 0.033 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication designed to treat a range of conditions, including diabetes insipidus, nocturnal enuresis, and von Willebrand disease. This medication functions by augmenting the quantity of antidiuretic hormone in the body, which aids in reducing urine production and enhancing water absorption in the kidneys. The formulation is available in an oral suspension form, a liquid dosage form where one or more ingredients are uniformly dispersed throughout a liquid medium, creating a homogeneous mixture for administration. This form is easy to consume and can be taken with or without food.

For patients suffering from diabetes insipidus, Desmopressin Acetate 0.033 mg/ml Oral Suspension can help manage the condition by reducing the volume of urine produced and increasing the absorption of water in the kidneys. This can alleviate symptoms such as excessive thirst and frequent urination.

In the case of nocturnal enuresis, Desmopressin Acetate 0.033 mg/ml Oral Suspension can help decrease the volume of urine produced during the night, thereby reducing the frequency of bedwetting incidents.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
