Guest guest Posted July 2, 2001 Report Share Posted July 2, 2001 Thanks to all who responded to my bedwetting query. just turned 12 last week and is really frustrated with her bedwetting problem. Her medication for enuresis seemed to poop out when the high anxiety of her therapy kicked in. But now that we have switched her from Luvox to Celexa, she has had more dry nights. It has only been a couple of weeks, so that may be a coincidence. For her enuresis, she is on DDAVP orally (instead of nasal) as well as Oxybutynin (Ditropan). She has been taking these since fall of last year and is to also do bladder stretching exercises -- holding it in as long as she can during the day -- and practice stopping her urine mid-flow. Her Urologist said that she should be dry within a year of taking these medications and doing the exercises. In a couple of months, it will be a year and she is nowhere near being dry every night. I am beginning to believe that with someone predisposed to urinary problems, the SSRIs are making it much much worse! I feel like taking her off all meds both SSRIs and the Enuresis meds! in PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
