Abstract
- The authors report on an observation of imipramine withdrawal syndrome which appeared when tapering the treatment of a case of bed-wetting. Symptoms included vomiting, digestive intolerance and dehydration. Such a presentation can mislead diagnosis towards abdominal or neurosurgical pathology. All symptoms disappeared after a symptomatic treatment or in combination with the return of imipramine. It is therefore important to be aware of this complication before prescribing imipramine treatment for enuresis. The discontinuation of this drug must be very progressive.
