Overview
Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Desmopressin 60mcg. It is supplied as a medicine and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.
Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.
On DoctorOnCall, Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.
Directions for Use
Place the Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate lyophilisate on top of the tongue, where it will dissolve rapidly without needing water; do not push it out with your finger or chew it. Take at the time of day advised by your doctor. Avoid drinking large amounts of fluid around the time of dosing, as your doctor will advise, since drinking excessively while the medicine is reducing urine output can lead to fluid overload and low blood sodium.
Dosage
The dose of Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate is individualised by your doctor according to your condition, age, and response, typically starting at a low dose taken once or more times daily and adjusted based on your urine output and fluid balance. Never change your dose or dosing schedule without your doctor’s advice.
Shelf Life
Use this product before the expiry date stated on the packaging. Do not use the medicine if the expiry date has passed.
Storage Instructions
Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
Side Effects
- Headache
- Nausea
- Abdominal pain
- Fluid retention or swelling
- Low blood sodium levels (hyponatremia)
- Dizziness or fatigue
Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity to desmopressin or any ingredient in this product
- Habitual or psychogenic polydipsia (drinking excessive fluids not due to true thirst)
- Moderate to severe kidney impairment
- Low blood sodium (hyponatraemia) or conditions predisposing to fluid/electrolyte imbalance, including uncontrolled heart failure requiring diuretics
- Known or suspected syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH)
Drug / Food Interactions
- NSAIDs may enhance the antidiuretic effect and increase the risk of fluid retention and low blood sodium
- Medicines that increase the body’s own antidiuretic hormone activity, such as certain antidepressants (tricyclics, SSRIs) and chlorpromazine, can increase the risk of water retention when combined
- Loperamide may increase desmopressin blood levels when taken with the oral formulation
- Excessive fluid intake around dosing times increases the risk of water retention and low blood sodium
Quick Tips
- Limit fluid intake around the time you take your dose, exactly as your doctor advises
- Let the lyophilisate dissolve on your tongue rather than swallowing it whole with water
- Seek medical advice promptly if you develop unusual headache, confusion, or persistent vomiting
- Keep to your doctor’s prescribed dosing schedule and do not adjust it yourself
- Tell your doctor if you develop a fever, vomiting, or diarrhoea, as fluid balance can be affected
- Attend follow-up appointments so your doctor can monitor your response and blood sodium if needed
Frequently Asked Questions

Why is there no information here about what Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate is for?
Malaysian rules for prescription medicines limit public product pages to product, safety and handling information. Your doctor decides whether this medicine is appropriate for you and will explain it during your consultation, and your pharmacist can answer further questions when the medicine is dispensed.
How should I take Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate?
Take it exactly as written on your prescription label. Do not increase, reduce or skip doses on your own, and do not continue beyond the period your doctor has prescribed. Practical handling steps are set out in the Directions for Use section on this page.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Take it as soon as you remember, unless your next dose is nearly due. In that case skip the missed dose and carry on with your usual schedule. Never take two doses together to make up for a missed one. If you miss doses often, tell your doctor or pharmacist.
How should I store Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate?
Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. Keep it in the original pack until use, and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
What should I do if I notice side effects?
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you, and seek medical care immediately for signs of a severe reaction such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips or throat, or a widespread rash. Reported reactions are listed in the Side Effects section on this page.
Can I stop taking Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate on my own?
No. Speak to your doctor before stopping, pausing or changing the dose, even if you feel well or think you no longer need the medicine.
How do I get a prescription for Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate?
Customers in Malaysia can complete an online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor, who decides whether a prescription is appropriate, or upload a valid prescription already issued by their own doctor.
Orders going to Singapore are dispatched from Malaysia as an international delivery, so you need to hold a valid prescription or doctor’s letter for the medicine. Check the consultation and prescription upload options shown at checkout for your delivery address before placing the order.
How long will delivery take?
Within Malaysia, standard delivery takes 3 to 5 working days. Same-day delivery is available in the Klang Valley for orders placed before 12pm; orders placed after 12pm arrive by the end of the next day.
Orders to Singapore are sent as international deliveries and take 5 to 9 working days. A lump-sum shipping and handling fee applies to every overseas delivery and is shown at checkout.
What payment methods can I use?
Customers in Malaysia can pay by FPX online banking, credit or debit card (Visa and Mastercard), and supported e-wallets including Touch ‘n Go eWallet, GrabPay and ShopeePay.
FPX and local e-wallets are tied to Malaysian bank and wallet accounts, so if your delivery address is in Singapore, use the payment options displayed at checkout for that address rather than assuming the same list applies.
Can Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate be delivered to Singapore?
Yes. DoctorOnCall ships to Singapore as an international order dispatched from Malaysia, arriving in 5 to 9 working days with a lump-sum shipping and handling fee.
Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) allows personal imports of up to three months’ supply of a medicine for your own use or an immediate family member’s, as long as it contains no controlled drugs, psychotropic substances or prohibited items. Keep the product in its original labelled packaging and keep a copy of your prescription or doctor’s letter with it. Quantities above three months’ supply, and medicines containing controlled substances, require prior HSA approval.
Is Minirin 60mcg Oral Lyophilisate registered with the authorities?
Products listed on DoctorOnCall are registered with Malaysia’s Ministry of Health for supply in Malaysia, and each pack carries its MAL registration number.
An order delivered to Singapore arrives as a personal import of a Malaysia-registered product; HSA product registration is not required for personal-use quantities, but it is also not the same as a product registered for sale in Singapore. If you need a locally registered Singapore product, buy it from a pharmacy in Singapore.
Who do I contact if there is a problem with my order?
DoctorOnCall’s customer care team handles order, delivery and product queries through the contact channels on the site, including WhatsApp and the online help centre.
For deliveries to Singapore, allow more time before chasing an order than you would for a local Malaysian delivery, as the parcel passes through customs clearance and tracking updates can appear later in the journey.
