oral medicines. S Cr is 1.2 ,24 hr urinary protien is 220, lipids quite low (total chlostrol only 98,triglyceride below 100). My problem is night frequency of urination say 5 times in 8 hrs with about 66% urine output (of total24 hrs output).Urologist had advised to take MINIRIN 1mg tablet(demossprin) before going to bed for 2 wks.Same did not work as I might
not be suffering with Diabetic Inspedus.Urologist has diagonised my disease as Nocturnal Polyurea.Request advise treatment.

Hello
Thanks for query .
You have not mentioned following facts in your query
1) Your age
2) Whether you have done Ultrasound Scanning of abdomen and have ruled out/confirmed enlarged Prostate .
Nocturnal polyurea may be most likely to be due to Enlarged Prostate associated with diabetes .
Taking Tomsulosin once daily and proper control of Diabetes will help to reduce the nocturnal frequency to some extent .
