StopUrin - 20 ml

StopUrin - Helps children with bed-wetting

StopUrin is a hop extract originating from a plant called Humulus Lupulus (common hop), which due to its properties and principal active ingredients helps to teach children how to control the urge to urinate while sleeping or to get rid of bed-wetting.

StopUrin acts through evaporating aromas rich in:
– Flavonoids:  astringent, vasodilatative and antidiuretic effects
– GABA acid  (gamma-aminobutyric): neurotransmitter naturally present in the brain, improves sleep, regulation of the muscle tonus. Inhibiting ability – alleviates the irritation of nerve cells.

How to use: The product is recommended for children with urine retention problems from the age of three. When the child goes to sleep, place 12 – 14 drops onto a makeup removal wipe or a cotton pad.  Place this makeup removal wipe or cotton pad on the bedside table as close as possible to the child.   To enhance the effect, the room door should be almost or completely closed. Repeat daily for a minimum of two months. With the help of StopUrin, the child will learn to control the leakage of urine step by step. The product can also be used in a humidifier, evaporating as the steam escapes, as well as in electric humidifiers placed at steam exit. Never put the product directly in the water in order to avoid obstruction of the filters.

Problem, which we do not speak about

Children with enuresis rate their problem at the THIRD place at a scale of the most stressful situations (1. death in family, 2. parents’ divorce). Those who suffer from enuresis are often the subject of ridicule. They do not want to talk about their problem, shun other children and feel embarrassment in front of their siblings. Fear of possible revelation is forcing them to be absent at events requiring night stay (staying overnight at friend’s house, camps, open-air school).

“Many parents tend to overlook their children’s bedwetting and ‘tend to sweep the problem under the carpet’. But at the same time they do not realize that bedwetting is causing a significant social and hygienic handicap that affects not only the patient himself, but also his family,” (Zdeněk Dítě, M.D., Urological clinic of the 1st Medical Faculty of Charles University)

Successful testing:

1) From September 2011 to December 2012, the effectiveness of StopUrin was tested at the clinic of Dr. Peset in Valencia, Spain.

Children at the age of 5 to 7 years (i.e. the threshold for nocturnal enuresis – after this age, there should be no nocturnal enuresis, night urination is usually controlled) who suffered from level 2 enuresis, without further medical problems such as diabetes, urinary infection, urogenital or neural malformation or constipation, with problems persisting even after treatment of the diagnosed enuresis, were included in this study.

The study was performed in 48 children in 2 groups: one group of 25 children was treated with StopUrin, the second group (placebo), of 23 children, was given a product with the same composition as StopUrin, but without the essential extract of hops flowers (produced by the same company, in the same package as the preparation containing the product subjected to this study). The preparation type provided to individual groups was chosen randomly. The physician and the family did not know if they used the tested preparation or the other product. The children were included into the study in the order they visited the office of Dr. Peset at the general paediatrics department of the University Hospital, Valencia.

Data was mainly recorded into a diary – the parents recorded the days with nocturnal enuresis and the approximate volume (high, medium, and low), the time (hour) the child went to bed and the fluid intake (water). The clinical study was divided into 3 periods:

• 15 days of usual condition (without the product)
• 15 days with StopUrin
• 15 days after StopUrin discontinuation

After analysis of data acquired from the records of respective diaries and used nappies monitoring, effectiveness of StopUrin was determined.

Results:  clearly proven effect of StopUrin - 65 %

The Czech translation of the whole clinical study is available here.

2) The product manufacturer, Spanish company Laboratec S.L. performed an internal test of StopUrin effectiveness from March 2012 till March 2013.

In total, 300 children at the age of 5 to 9, suffering from primary enuresis, were tested.

Procedure: 1 month without therapy / 2 months with therapy / 1 month of monitoring after the end

The test results have proven effectiveness of the therapy of up to 80%.

• 25% after the first weeks
• further 50% after a month
• further 5% after 2 month
