No intake!: Primary Nocturnal Enuresis is common and self limited If he has never been dry in the morning, this is the probable diagnosis. If he is motivated, you might be interested in trying a reputable sleep alarm system. I do not recommend eating or drinking right before bedtime. Using the toilet before bedtime makes sense!

Enuresis alarm: Enuresis can persist into young adulthood and is usually familial. It can be quite frustrating for affected people. First line prevention is avoiding liquids after 6 pm and voiding before bed. Enuresis alarms are devices that attach to the waistband and vibrate when the bladder contracts, and DDAVP is a medication (oral or nasal spray) which are other treatment options. I hope this helps!
