Yes. I have been able to get DDAVP (Desmopressin) for low Aldosterone (ADH) from my GP. If you can't find one to Rx it for ya, try going to an Endocrinologist. I only take .1 mg at night to keep from having to get up and pee. It makes a big difference!
I was also getting Cortef for a few years, but I stopped taking it. A GP shouldn't have any problem Rx-ing these meds, but since Obama care things have changed. Docs are a lot more cautious, esp the young ones. Try to find someone close to retiring if you can.
You should be able to pre-screen a prospective Dr about his/her willingness to provide you with them over the phone before making an appointment (if you have the required tests results).
