Does dessmopressin 2mg pills 2x a day have anything to do with developing calcium kidney stones.

Concentrate urine: Yes because it cause your urine volume to be reduced and consequently will raise the concentration of calcium oxalate facilitating crystalization if you have a predisposition of excessive calcium absorption of familial nature or a bowel problem with tendency for diarrhea. Reducing the dose will allow for more dilute urine.
