Re: worried about 11yr old son

There is a pill you can get to stop this happening, I cant remember what it was called but I had it and I wanted to go on a girl guide trip very badly so the doctor prescribed it and I never had a problem since. I was a bit younger than your son but it worked. Maybe you could enquire about whatever that could've been?

Medication
If all else fails, your child's doctor may prescribe medication to stop bed-wetting. Various types of medication can:
  • Slow nighttime urine production. The drug desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) boosts levels of a natural hormone that forces the body to make less urine at night. The medication is available as a pill or nasal spray. DDAVP has few side effects. The most serious is a seizure if the medication is accompanied by too many fluids. Change a child's sleeping and waking pattern. The antidepressant imipramine (Tofranil) may provide bed-wetting relief by changing a child's sleeping and waking pattern. The medication may also increase the amount of time a child can hold urine or reduce the amount of urine produced. Imipramine has few side effects for bed-wetters. Caution is essential, however. An overdose could be fatal.
  • Calm the bladder. If your child has a small bladder, an anticholinergic drug such as oxybutynin (Ditropan) or hyoscyamine (Levsinex) may help reduce bladder contractions and increase bladder capacity. Side effects may include dry mouth and facial flushing.
