An initial 0.1 mg dose of oral desmopressin significantly improved nocturia in older Asian men, including those >80 years, with safe sodium monitoring and high continuation rates.
Does an initial 0.1 mg dose of oral desmopressin safely improve nocturia parameters in older Asian men with nocturnal polyuria?
A 0.1 mg starting dose of oral desmopressin is effective and safe for treating nocturnal polyuria in older Asian men when accompanied by serum sodium monitoring.

This study provides real-world evidence of effectiveness and safety of oral desmopressin in an older Asian male population, including a subgroup aged >80 years. A starting dose of 0.1 mg oral desmopressin, coupled with careful serum sodium monitoring and dose adjustment if required, was associated with significant improvement in all nocturia parameters and a high rate of continuation.
