It is the normal state of affairs in infancy, but can be a source of embarrassment when it persists into school age or the teen or adult years. Find others who are coping with a bedwetting problem and share your experiences and questions.

Hello there. I used to take desmopressin which were not very effective and then I was prescribed detrusitol which also not effective. Since then I have been diagnosed with Overactive Bladder. I have altered my diet which has helped and I had just started acupuncture treatment (provided by NHS) before this whole lockdown thing began here in the UK. I can't wait to be able to continue it when this pandemic dies down.
I think it would be worth consulting with your Dr if the medications are not as effective as you would like.
But it's taken me a very long time to get to this point so have faith, you're not alone and a positive outcome can be found eventually.
Regards.

I have used the Desmopressin nasal spay in the past, especially if staying away as it seemed to work, but I would only use it short term as it gave me awful headaches and also made my bladder more irritable during the day. Oxybutin did not work for me. My bladder problems were made worse by a spinal injury so no meds will fix that. Now manage it by wearing good protection night and day.
