Minirin 0.2mg Tablet contains desmopressin (0.2 mg). Here's how it works:

• Vasopressin Receptor Activation: Desmopressin activates vasopressin receptors in the kidney tubules.

• Increased Water Permeability: Once these receptors are activated, water permeability in the kidney tubules increases.

• Boosted Water Reabsorption: The increased water permeability promotes water reabsorption from urine back into the bloodstream.

• Decreased Urine Volume: As a result of increased water reabsorption, there is a decrease in urine volume.

• Enhanced Urine Concentration: Alongside reducing urine volume, desmopressin also aids in increasing the concentration of urine.

• Store your Minirin 0.2mg Tablet at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.

• Shield it from light and moisture, so keep the container tightly closed.

• Remember to keep the medicine out of reach of children.

• Make sure you use the tablet before its expiry date.

• If you're managing Central Diabetes Insipidus (CDI), avoid excessive water intake. This condition causes your body to produce large amounts of urine, and drinking too much water can worsen this symptom.

• For those using Minirin 0.2mg Tablet to manage bedwetting, reduce fluid intake before bedtime. This can help decrease nighttime urine production.
