DESMOPRESSIN ACETATE- DESMOPRESSIN ACETATE SPRAY PRASCO LABORATORIES ---------- DESMOPRESSIN ACETATE NASAL SPRAY, 10 MCG PER 0.1 ML RX ONLY DESCRIPTION Desmopressin Acetate Nasal Spray is a synthetic analogue of the natural pituitary hormone 8-arginine vasopressin (ADH), an antidiuretic hormone affecting renal water conservation. It is chemically defined as follows: Mol. wt. 1183.34 Empirical formula: C H N O S •C H O •3H O 1-(3-mercaptopropionic acid)-8-D-arginine vasopressin monoacetate (salt) trihydrate. Desmopressin Acetate Nasal Spray is provided as an aqueous solution for intranasal use. Each mL contains: Desmopressin acetate 0.1 mg Sodium chloride 7.5 mg Citric acid monohydrate 1.7 mg Disodium phosphate dihydrate 3 mg Benzalkonium chloride solution (50%) 0.2 mg The Desmopressin Acetate Nasal Spray compression pump delivers 0.1 mL (10 mcg) of desmopressin acetate per spray. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Desmopressin acetate contains as active substance 1-(3-mercaptopropionic acid)-8-D-arginine vasopressin, which is a synthetic analogue of the natural hormone arginine vasopressin. One mL (0.1 mg) of intranasal desmopressin acetate has an antidiuretic activity of about 400 International Units (IU); 10 mcg of desmopressin acetate is equivalent to 40 IU. The change in structure of arginine vasopressin to desmopressin acetate has resulted in a decreased vasopressor action and decreased actions on visceral smooth muscle relative to the enhanced antiduretic activity, so that clinically effective antiduretic doses are usually below threshold levels for effects on vascular or visceral smooth muscle. Desmopressin acetate administered intranasally has an antiduretic effect about one-tenth that of an equivalent dose administered by injection. PHARMACOKINETICS Intranasal Desmopressin Acetate is absorbed from the nasal mucosa. Desmopressin Acetate exhibits a biphasic elimination profile, with half-lives of 7.8 and 75.5 minutes for the initial and terminal phases, respectively, in contrast to lysine vasopressin, which has ini Pročitajte cijeli dokument
