Botulinum Toxin Injections for Children With Bedwetting or Voiding Problems
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests whether injections of botulinum toxin (a medicine that relaxes muscles) into the bladder can help children who wet the bed at night or have trouble controlling their urine, even after trying other treatments. The goal is to see if this approach works better than current standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is under 18 years old
- Your child has persistent bedwetting at night or difficulty controlling urine during the day, despite trying other treatments
- Your child does not have a bleeding disorder or neuromuscular disease (like myasthenia gravis)
- Your child does not currently have a urinary tract infection
- Your child is healthy enough to safely receive anesthesia (needed for the injection procedure)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two treatments for overactive bladder (OAB) that hasn't improved with standard medications: injections of platelet-rich plasma (a substance from your own blood) versus botulinum toxin (Botox). Both are injected into the bladder to help reduce urgency and leakage.
This trial tests a new medication (Omegapres) against the usual combination of two drugs (Solifenacin and Mirabegron) to see which works better for children with nighttime bedwetting (primary mono-symptomatic nocturnal enuresis). If your child has only bedwetting at night and no other bladder or bowel issues during the day, this study might help find a more effective treatment.
This trial tests a one-time injection of botulinum toxin (like Botox) into the bottom muscle to help children who have frequent, stubborn bowel leakage. It aims to see if relaxing the muscle can reduce accidents.
This trial tests if a small electrical device (TENS) placed on the skin can help reduce nighttime bedwetting in children who have not improved with standard bladder training. It may offer a new, non-drug option for families.
This trial tests whether botulinum toxin (Botox) injections into the rectum can improve bowel control in people with active fecal incontinence. It aims to help those who haven't gotten better with standard treatments like diet changes or pelvic floor therapy.
This study compares the usual amount of Botox injected into the bladder versus a smaller amount. It aims to see whether fewer injections can reduce overactive bladder symptoms with fewer side effects, like trouble emptying the bladder.
