DDAVP in childhood nocturnal enuresis

T Tuvemo. Acta Paediatr Scand. 1978 Nov.

Abstract

A double-blind study of 18 children aged 6--12 years suffering from primary nocturnal enuresis without signs of underlying organic disease is reported. 20 microgram of DDAVP (desamino-D-arginine vasopressin, Minirin) was given intranasally at bedtime. The effect was prompt and satisfactory in 8 children and relatively good in another 8 children. No adverse effects were noted. DDAVP is advocated for temporary use in children with nocturnal enuresis needing immediate help.
