treatment of recurrent bedwetting after previous successful treatment
Last reviewed 01/2018
Following successful treatment with an alarm:
- in people who have started regularly bedwetting - consider alarm treatment
once again
- in people who have more than one recurrence of bedwetting - offer combination treatment with an alarm and desmopressin
Following response to previous desmopressin treatment courses:
- in people who experience repeated recurrences - consider using repeated
courses of desmopressin
- withdraw desmopressin gradually rather than stopping it suddenly
- if an alarm is now considered appropriate and desirable - consider alarm treatment as an alternative to restarting desmopressin
Perform regular medication reviews for repeated courses of drug treatment in bed wetting (1)
