What are the treatment options for nighttime urination?

The frequency of midnight urination can also be decreased by certain actions. You can feel more refreshed if you take an afternoon sleep.
Throughout the day, keep your legs up or put on compression stockings. This promotes fluid circulation and may lessen urinating at night.
Medication
Additionally, medications may lessen urine during night. It’s crucial to remember that while drugs can reduce symptoms, they cannot stop overnight urinating. Your symptoms will reappear once you stop taking them.
Anticholinergics are a class of medications that relax bladder muscular spasms. Additionally, they can lessen the urge for frequent urination.
Certain anticholinergic medications can lessen bedwetting. Nevertheless, these drugs may result in adverse effects like blurred vision, dizziness, and dry mouth.
A diuretic that promotes urine early in the day is advised by some physicians. Your bladder may hold less urine at night as a result of this. Reducing evening urination may also be possible with the use of synthetic antidiuretic hormone.
