Brief Summary	Nocturia is defined as waking one or more times to void during the period between going to bed with the intention of sleeping and waking with the intention of arising.The pathophysiology of nocturia is multifactorial and can be complex. Therefore it is important to adopt a systematic approach to identify the possible causal factors of nocturia and to treat them accordingly. Patients with nocturia can be categorized as having one of the following three disorders: (1) nocturnal polyuria (NP) in which the voided urine volume during the hours of sleep exceeds 35% of the 24-hr output, (2) low nocturnal bladder capacity (NBC) causing a nocturnal urinary volume greater than the bladder capacity, (3) or mixed nocturia, a combination of the preceding two categories. Desmopressin, a synthetic analogue of the antidiuretic hormone (ADH), has been used for many years to treat diabetes insipidus and primary nocturnal enuresis.More recently, it is also known to be effective against nocturia with NP by decreasing night-time urine production.However, it may be associated with an increased risk of developing hyponatremia due to water retention, especially in elderly patients.In the present study, we investigated the safety and efficacy of oral desmopressin for the treatment of mixed nocturia in patients with both NP and a low NBC.
Detailed Description	Open label, prospective, multicenter study; Study design screening (1-week), dose titration (1-3 weeks) and 4-weeks of treatment period open-label dose-titration periods of up to 3 wk; the patients' optimum oral desmopressin dose (0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 mg) was determined as the dose that decreased the number of nocturnal voids by ≥50% and NUV decreased by ≥20% without hyponatremia. If the patients did not meet the above criteria during dose titration period, they received the maximum tolerable dose instead of the optimum dose. -- 4-weeks of treatment period; Eligible patients were treated with the determined optimum desmopressin dose for 4-weeks.; Measurements 3-day frequency-volume charts sleep questionnaire body weight, blood and urine analysis,serum sodium monitoring adverse event
