How long does it take to get ddavp (desmopressin) for bedwetting out of a child's system ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hours: Ddavp (desmopressin) is a fast acting medication. It must be given each night to see an effect on bed wetting. Its effect is usually completely gone within 6 to 8 hours after administration.
