Medication

The last resort

If you've given all these methods a good shot; if you've been consistent, stuck to a plan, given it a good few weeks and you've still made no headway, it may be time to head back to the doctor. Medication should be seen as a last resort only. Too many parents believe that medication is a "quick fix" for a problem that was medical to begin with. Neither thing is true. All medications have side-effects. These should be explained thoroughly to you before you give them to your child. If the doctor doesn't do it, I encourage you to look up the side-effects on the internet.

Medications for bedwetting work best in low doses, and for brief periods. They are most useful in situations where the child is going to need to be dry for one night, or a few nights at most. For example, the child may be invited to a sleep-over, or a weekend away. As a long-term solution, medications are not the answer. The benefits wear off fairly quickly, but the side-effects do not.
