Drugs That May Cause Urinary Incontinence

Tuesday, November 03, 2009

abcdAnti depressants can make the symptoms of overflow incontinence worse by not allowing the bladder to contract normally resulting in the bladder not emptying completely. Other antidepressants can cause a person to become unaware of the need to go to the bathroom. If a person is experiencing these symptoms they should talk to their doctor about changing their medication.
Diuretics also known as “water pills,” work in the kidney to reduce blood pressure by flushing excess water and salt out of the body. When a person is taking diuretics they are making more urine, thus making more frequent trips to the bathroom. To deal with the incontinence that may develop some people may wear an adult diaper to maintain the incontinence or start doing Kegel Exercises to strengthen pelvic floor muscles or take the diuretic in the morning so that you will void more urine during the day than at night.
Sleeping pills can cause a person who experiences night incontinence worse because they won’t wake up when there bladder is full. When a person has night incontinence they may want to stay away from caffeine so they don’t need the help of sleeping pills to fall a sleep
