Which disorder is Desmopressin primarily used to treat?

  1. Type II diabetes

  2. Hemophilia A

  3. Hypertension

  4. Asthma

The correct answer is: Hemophilia A

Desmopressin is primarily used to treat Hemophilia A, a genetic disorder where the blood does not clot properly. This is because Desmopressin stimulates the release of a protein that is necessary for blood clotting. The other options listed, including type II diabetes, hypertension, and asthma, are all unrelated to blood clotting and would not be effectively treated with Desmopressin.
