    9 year old son had taken this consistantly for a about month and nothing. He is up to 3 .2mg pills before and this has been completly ineffective. This is so easy to use and sounds like something he can really benefit from. very disappointed.

    My pediatrician tried this medication for my 12-year-old son. It did not keep him from bedwetting. We tried doubling the dose, still no luck. We were afraid to go higher because of possible side effects.

    i am a personal user of DDAVP..im 15 years old now and my parents and i finally went to see a doctor about my "problem". My kidneys are like awesome now even though i dont take DDAVP anymore. I stopped after my 2nd checkup-w/o doctor notification and it took me a while to re-adjust but after about 2-3 months im great, bedwet free and everything! so i encourage the use but see a doctor ...

    My son had been successfully taking this medication for 9 yrs now, his doctor says he'll stop bedwetting one day and then we can discontinue use. I feel that this is a long time to take this medication. My son is now 16 yrs old and when he doesn't take the medication, he wets the bed. I've taken him to a specialist and he tells me the same thing. Do I have reason for concern?
