Delay in desmopressin therapy: Disaster in waiting

Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics, Volume 47, Issue 12, Page 2376-2378, December 2022., 2022
There is little information on the onset of hypernatremia after withdrawal of desmopressin. We present a case of an elderly woman with central DI whose serum sodium jumped from 141 to 171 mEq/L after 48‐72 h of holding oral desmopressin. Based on this precipitous onset of DI crisis, we recommend not withholding desmopressin for more than 24 h. Abstract
