How to use Enurex
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Enurex may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How Enurex works
Enurex is a synthetic form of vasopressin (natural hormone that balances water). It works by causing reabsorption of water from the kidneys which controls excessive thirst and urination in diabetes insipidus. It also helps decrease night-time urine production and bedwetting in children. In addition to these, it reduces bleeding episodes by promoting the release of blood clotting factors.
What if you forget to take Enurex?
If you miss a dose of Enurex, skip it and continue with your normal schedule. Do not double the dose.
