In healthy volunteer donors, intranasal instillation of adiuretin-SD in doses of 0.0002-0.001 mg/kg a day provoked an increase of the activity VIII:WF in the plasma and acceleration of euglobulin lysis. Out of 15 patients suffering from Willebrand's disease, the activity of Willebrand's factor rose in 9 patients. Activated partial thromboplastic time became shorter in all the patients. In addition, acceleration of euglobulin lysis was noted. In view of that fact adiuretin was used later in combination with aminocaproic acid (0.2 g/kg a day). All the patients suffering from menorrhagias demonstrated the lowering of hemorrhagic diathesis. The data obtained allow recommending the use of adiuretin combined with aminocaproic acid in patients suffering from Willebrand's disease.
