clonidine and Nocturnal Enuresis

clonidine has been researched along with Nocturnal Enuresis in 2 studies

Clonidine: An imidazoline sympatholytic agent that stimulates ALPHA-2 ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS and central IMIDAZOLINE RECEPTORS. It is commonly used in the management of HYPERTENSION.
clonidine (amino form) : A clonidine that is 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-amine in which one of the amino hydrogens is replaced by a 2,6-dichlorophenyl group.

Nocturnal Enuresis: Involuntary discharge of URINE during sleep at night after expected age of completed development of urinary control.
