INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Hemophilia A: Desmopress in Acetate Injection 4 mcg/mL is indicated for patients with hemophilia A with factor VIII coagulant activity levels greater than 5%.
Desmopress in acetate injection will often maintain hemostasis in patients with hemophilia A during surgical procedures and postoperatively when administered 30 minutes prior to scheduled procedure.
Desmopress in acetate injection will also stop bleeding in hemophilia A patients with episodes of spontaneous or trauma-induced injuries such as hemarthroses, intramuscular hematomas or mucosal bleeding.
Desmopress in acetate injection is not indicated for the treatment of hemophilia A with factor VIII coagulant activity levels equal to or less than 5%, or for the treatment of hemophilia B, or in patients who have factor VIII antibodies.
In certain clinical situations, it may be justified to try desmopress in acetate injection in patients with factor VIII levels between 2% to 5%; however, these patients should be carefully monitored. von Willebrand’s Disease (Type I): Desmopres s in acetate injection 4 mcg/mL is indicated for patients with mild to moderate classic von Willebrand’s disease (Type I) with factor VIII levels greater than 5%. Desmopress in acetate injection will often maintain hemostasis in patients with mild to moderate von Willebrand’s disease during surgical procedures and postoperatively when administered 30 minutes prior to the scheduled procedure.
Desmopress in acetate injection will usually stop bleeding in mild to moderate von Willebrand’s patients with episodes of spontaneous or trauma-induced injuries such as hemarthroses, intramuscular hematomas or mucosal bleeding.
Those von Willebrand’s disease patients who are least likely to respond are those with severe homozygous von Willebrand’s disease with factor VIII coagulant activity and factor VIII von
Willebrand factor antigen levels less than 1%. Other patients may respond in a variable fashion depending on the type of molecular defect they have. Bleeding time and factor VIII coagulant activity, ristocetin cofactor activity, and von Willebrand factor antigen should be checked during administration of desmopress in acetate injection to ensure that adequate levels are being achieved.
Desmopress in acetate injection is not indicated for the treatment of severe classic von Willebrand’s disease (Type I) and when there is evidence of an abnormal molecular form of factor VIII antigen.
Diabetes Insipidus: Desmopress in acetate injection 4 mcg/mL is indicated as antidiuretic replacement therapy in the management of central (cranial) diabetes insipidus and for the management of the temporary polyuria and polydipsia following head trauma or surgery in the pituitary region.
Desmopress in acetate injection is ineffective for the treatment of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.
Desmopress in acetate is also available as an intranasal preparation. However, this means of delivery can be compromised by a variety of factors that can make nasal insufflation ineffective or inappropriate.
These include poor intranasal absorption, nasal congestion and blockage, nasal discharge, atrophy of nasal mucosa, and severe atrophic rhinitis. Intranasal delivery may be inappropriate where there is an impaired level of consciousness. In addition, cranial surgical procedures, such as transsphenoidal hypophysectomy, create situations where an alternative route of administration is needed as in cases of nasal packing or recovery from surgery.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Desmopress in acetate injection 4 mcg/mL is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to desmopress in acetate or to any of the components of desmopress in acetate injection 4 mcg/mL.
Desmopress in acetate injection is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe renal impairment (defined as a creatinine clearance below 50ml/min).
Desmopress in acetate injection is contraindicated in patients with hyponatremia or a history of hyponatremia.
