I have a 10 year old bedwetter. The pediatric urologist has prescribed Sanctura.?

Question

From what I'm reading, it says it should not be given to children as adequate studies have not been done on its safety for children. Have any of you given this drug to your children? This happened once before with a drug she prescribed, and when I checked with my pediatrician, he said it's used all the time in children, and it's just a labeling requirement. Any feedback you can provide to me would be appreciated.

Answer 1

All I would like to say because i am not familiar with this either is that you should monitor your childs intake of fluids from the time he has supper until bedtime. Do not allow him to have sodas and juices and large amounts of water before he goes to sleep. If he goes to bed at 9 p.m. don't let him drink past 7:30 and tell him to use the bathroom before he goes to sleep. Practice this with him every night. I know it's more than just that but it can help, and will help in the future because unless there a medical condition, which there may be, this child needs a strict regiment on his intake of fluids every evening and I'll bet you see quick changes!

Answer 2

there is a device that sounds an alarm when he pees at night it may take a few days for this to correct this problem but it works you will have to get up and get him changed but he is sleeping too deeply. Dont let him drink a couple hours before bed and make sure he tries to empty his bladder first. after a few nights of waking up after he pees and having to change etc his body should take care of this. Dont embarrass him or yell at him, a calm supportive voice will do best.
