Answer 2

Desmopressin acetate or DDAVP is a medicine used to control diabetes insipidus. It is used to reduce night wetting, as well as haemorrhages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Desmopressin acetate has a severe side effect. During its long term use it leads to bronchospasms and bronchostiffness. This leads to difficulties in breathing as well as chest tightness.

This condition can be treated with a medication of beta 2 agonist like salbutamol or terbutaline, along with mild hydrocortisones like salmeterol or formeterol. But in case the person has hyperglycemia, intravenous or intrasermal insulin is used.
