Overview

Nocturnal enuresis is involuntary urination that happens at night while sleeping, after the age when a person should be able to control his or her bladder. Most of us think of bedwetting as something that happens with little kids.

For children and adolescents with refractory primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE), fluoxetine therapy, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, is a safe therapeutic option that produces an initial positive response. A study that appeared in the Journal of Urology found that the response rate does, however, gradually decline with time.
