What Causes Urinary Incontinence After Taking Lactulose?
My husband has cirrhoisis of the liver. He is taking Lactuatose along with a water pill to relieve swelling in his legs and stomach. Lately, He has been complaining that he feels the urge to urinate, but when he goes to the bathroom, he can t urinate.
Lactulose does not cause urinary incontinence. If you are unable to pass urine, kindly consult with Urologist and do ultrasound abdomen and pelvis to rule and renal function tests. Treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
