The effect of oral administration of desmopressin (DDAVP) solution was investigated in six patients with cranial diabetes insipidus of varying aetiology. All patients experienced a prompt and prolonged antidiuresis. Nine patients have been managed with oral DDAVP tablets for up to 5 months and all preferred this route of administration to intranasal application using a rhinyle. Oral DDAVP gives excellent and convenient control in cranial diabetes insipidus.
