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

Severe distinct dysautonomia in RFC1‐related disease associated with Parkinsonism

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 311-315, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Biallelic repeat expansions in replication factor C subunit 1 (RFC1) have recently been found to cause cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS).

Norepinephrine is More Effective Than Midodrine/Octreotide in Patients With Hepatorenal Syndrome-Acute Kidney Injury: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Background: Terlipressin is the first-line pharmacological treatment for hepatorenal syndrome. When terlipressin is unavailable, midodrine/octreotide or norepinephrine, with albumin, represent the alternative treatments. The comparative efficacy of these

Malmö POTS symptom score: Assessing symptom burden in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 293, Issue 1, Page 91-99, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a common cardiovascular autonomic disorder characterized by excessive heart rate (HR) increase on standing and symptoms of orthostatic intolerance, posing significant limitations on functional capacity. No objective tool exists to classify symptom burden in POTS.

Adequate Volume Restitution with Midodrine Versus Albumin in Patients with Refractory Ascites Undergoing Large-Volume Paracentesis: A Comparative Analysis

International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies
Large-volume paracentesis (LVP) is a cornerstone in the management of refractory ascites in cirrhotic patients, but it is associated with significant hemodynamic complications, including paracentesis-induced circulatory dysfunction (PICD).

Potential risks in using midodrine for persistent hypotension after cardiac surgery: a comparative cohort study

Annals of Intensive Care, 2020
Background Persistent hypotension is a frequent complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Midodrine, an orally administered alpha agonist, could potentially reduce intravenous vasopressor use and accelerate ICU discharge of ...

Treatment of Orthostatic Hypotension with Midodrine and Octreotide1 [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1998
The purpose of this study was to compare two treatments for orthostatic hypotension, midodrine (an alpha adrenergic agonist), and octreotide (an SRIH analogue) to each other and to combination therapy. Sixteen patients participated. Our hypothesis was that the 2 drugs together would be more effective than either drug alone.
