Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
What is her age?
What medication she is recieved?
Bedwetting is common in children and it can be managed without drugs in most of the children.
It can be managed by positive reinforcement, behavior therapy, alarm systems.
Some children will need drugs to control this problem.
If the above measures fail, then drugs can be advised in children above the age of 6 years.
I suggest you to consult the Pediatrician again do discuss your concerns.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
I find this answer helpful
