Noa,
this is probably a cholineric related med effect.
But it can also be caused by chronic low grade urinary tract /bladder infection in women.
An infection should be ruled out as a possible cause first.
Some women develop small bladder syndrome which has the same symptoms.
Chronic UTIs in men are uncommon.
There are some meds that may be of help, ditropan comes to mind. Am unsure about drug interactions tho.
Kagels as mentioned by Cindy also help. If one has a few extra tummy pounds & poor abdominal wall muscle tone, abd exercises help.
