Patient's question:
The child is 9 years old and often wets the bed at night. They have been taking medication for a year, and during that time, they no longer wet the bed at night. Now, they have stopped taking the medication for about 10 days, and recently, they have occasionally wet the bed again. Should they continue taking the medication? How long should they take it for?Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is recommended that you can decide to take medication intermittently. After not wetting the bed while taking medication, you can first stop taking the medication for one day and carefully observe for a few days without wetting the bed, then stop for two days, and gradually reduce the medication step by step. The above is the suggestion for the question "How to treat a 9-year-old child who often wets the bed at night?", and I hope it helps you. Wish you good health!
