Nasal Spray-For Bed Wets--HELP!

January 9, 2004

" Happy New Year " to all of the list familes:

I am looking for the name of the nasal spray that helps stop bed

wetting. I need HELP! She told me that she cannot wake up that is

why she wets the bed. I stopped liquids but parents that have

experience with Periactin knows at some point they will wake up go to

the kitchen and get a snack. HELP Moms and Dads. I wake up 3-4

times a night to actually tote her to the potty this has been going

on for 5 years now. I really need some advice medical or personal.

Thanks,

Jackie

Jackie,

The nasal spray is called DDAVP, or something like desmopressin.

Most just say DDAVP. There is also a pill called Levcin. For now,

I would try the DDAVP and see if it works. You can always try the

stronger stuff if need be.

One word of caution, however. Max uses this nasal spray. I would

say it works 95% of the time. When he is sick, however, he has more

breakthrough accidents.
