A) If a patient were to take this as a n IV dose once daily,
would the IV dose be much larger, much smaller, or about the same
amount as the nasal spray dose?
B) A potential side effect of desmopressin is Hyponatremia (very
low Blood sodium levels). Patients with very low plasma sodium
levels are at high risk of brain seizures. Explain the
pathophysiologic mechanism by which hyponatremia lowers the
threshold for a seizure in the brain.
