"I've been on this since 1989. The generic pill form works best! Before DDAVP, I went to the bathroom around the clock and drank tons of water. The nasal spray was difficult at first since they didn't have my dosage right, which I ended up in the hospital with my sodium at 119. But after the doctors got the dosage down and with the pills now, I've had no problems. Thank goodness for DDAVP."

"I love this medication. It works fast and more efficiently than the pill form. After pituitary surgery, I struggled for 8 months trying to get my bladder activity under control. I could not control my urine flow with the pills, and if I was standing in line at the grocery store, there was nothing I could do but face the embarrassment of having urine stream down my legs. With the nasal spray, I can dose right there when the urge hits, and it sustains me for a few minutes until my situation is more conducive to taking care of things. The nasal spray is way more predictable than the pill. Thank God I have it, no matter what it costs."

"I've been on the nasal spray nightly for 7 years since pituitary removal surgery. It's wonderful, expensive, but it works. I have found the generic version not as good, needs to be refrigerated, where the DDAVP has a normal shelf life."
