Have Quadriplegia. Have Little Control Over Bowel And Bladder. Why Are Kidneys Effected?
i ve quadriplegia since 71/2 yrs. and have no control over bladder n bowel. My kidneys are also effected. doctor had suggested me to do CIC every four hours and prescribed Soliten 10 mg in the morning n Soliten 5 mg in the morning to increase the capacity of bladder so as to avoid the leakage between the 4 hr duration. I want to know will it work, any side effect of the drug...?

The drug is reasonably safe.
Side effects like dizziness,blurring of vision,headache,upset stomach etc may be seen.
However in your case this drug may not help & CIC is a better option.
You may try Botulin injections in the bladder under consultation with specialist
