None of the drugs will cause Bladder Infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have been taking (ATIVAN,(0.5MG)",AMITRIPTYLIN,(100MG),OXYBUTYNIN,(10MG) & MELATONIN(3MG).

I would like to state that no drugs cause bladder infection .It could be due to incomplete emptying of the bladder that is very common in females at this age due to Post Menopausal Urethral Stenosis.

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
