No: People have used it for this purpose, but there is absolutely no proof it works. In the meantime, you'd be using a psychoactive drug (that means it changes/effects brain chemistry). I would not use it for my kid for that purpose.

No, not 4U or child: Worth seeing urologist if ur the patient ; have tried restricting fluids in evening ; setting alarm clock for nocturnal wakening.. U may have a reduced functional bladder capacity or don't produce enough anti-diuretic homone at night. Thus 'resevoir' may be too small or nocturnal urine is 2 high. Both can respond to medication. No st.Jw more so because ur already taking other medications. Gd luck.
