Is Painful Urination A Side Effect Of Narcotic Medicines?
I have been having to urinate it seems about every half effort and it hurts. My urine is clear so I don t think it is an infection. I m wondering if it could be a side of effect of some new supplements I ve started to take. I ve started taking Mild thistle since I take so much narcotic medicine for back and leg pain. I also have upped my magnesium for leg pain. could this be a side effect of these supplements?

Resepcted user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
Thistle is not associated with urinary problems.
Excess magnesium has definitely a side effect of retention of urine.
Hope this clears your query.
