Avatar n tn But, I would like to know if there is an over the counter medicine. I only get the urgency after a little stress. It stops after 10 hours or so on it's own. But, a cheaper "as needed" OTC medicine would sure be something I am interested in.
Avatar m tn urinary tract infection, interstitial cystitis, intake of diuretics and other medications, radiation therapy or bladder dysfunction. It would really help if you consult with the urologist for further evaluation and management. Take care and keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Anyone have experience with any over the counter depression medicine that works well?
Avatar f tn An over the counter medication is any medication that can be purchased without a prescription "over the counter", but does not make the medication safer and needs to be taken according to the directions on the package and there is a need to be more vigilent and take into consideration individual health, the benefits versus the risks and potential interactions with any prescribed meidcations.
Avatar f tn It's not uncommon to have some bleeding your first couple of times. The burning during urination could be a urinary tract infection. There's really no over the counter medication to clear this up so it's best that you see your Dr. They will most likely take a urine sample and check for bacteria. If it does show up you will be given medication. I do hope you and your boyfriend are using some form of birth control or you could become pregnant.
Avatar m tn It sounds like you have a urinary tract infection. If this is the case, don't worry because these are not uncommon. You can go to any drugstore and buy an over the counter medication to help with this. I would really recommend seeing your Dr first to find out if this is what's going on though.
Avatar n tn Have you tried over the counter medicine , ibrufen or aspirin, to relieve the pain? Does it work?
Avatar m tn it lasted about 15 seconds. The last day or so, I have had the urge to urinate often. Maybe about every 15 minutes. I go a small amount and then its ok, for another 15 minutes or so. I see no other symptoms...Could It be an STD? I Have a great deal of anxiety over this encounter and am having trouble not thinking or obsessing over it.
Avatar f tn My 18 year old son is having similiar problems. Started 3 months ago. Worse during the day (when sitting). His urinalysis (4 of them) comes back clear with no infection. He's had an ultra-sound that also came back fine. He's gone to two urologist (we didn't like the first one) and both called it Dysuria Frequent Urgency. The second doctor put him on an anti-biotic (sulfameth) just in case there was a slight infection not showing up in test.
Avatar n tn Also I was taking some over the counter medication for frequent urination problems when I took the Chlamydia and Ghonorea test, would this affect the test?
Avatar n tn Good luck...and even if it isnt try eating small meals spread out the day and see if you can get an over the counter sugar monitor and check your sugar during one of these "attacks". We also cut out most white foods and eat wheat instead...if it is diabetes there are lots of things u can do to improve the symptoms,other than and including medication if your doctor prescribes it.Exercise,eating right and making better choices in foods etc.Keep us updated and try to worry too much!
5079728 tn?1365549989 So any medication that you can go in and buy without a prescription is considered an over the counter medication. This would include every single med lined up on the shelves ..... pain killers, cough meds, diarrhea meds, nausea meds, stomach meds, anti-itching meds, everything. If I recall correctly, you have cirrhosis, so you really do have to be careful not to take anything that the doctor does not approve first.
1380526 tn?1292839385 Also is ur urine darker at times and clear on the frequent days? This could fit my theroy. Just be careful not to dehydrate yourself to prevent the constant BR trips. Too often people stop drinking enough to compinsate and that isn't good either What a pain in the neck this is. In more ways than one.
Avatar f tn about a week ago i developed a swollen gland behind my ear and about a day later the frequent urination started. i bought an over the counter urinary tract infection tester and it game back negative for leukocites and slightly positive (very slightly) for nitrites. i had some 500 mg cipro from a respiratory infection that i had last winter. i called my pharmacist and she said that cipro is used for urinary infections. she said the dose is often 2 pills twice daily for 3 days.
Avatar f tn I am 30 yr old male . I have frequent urination since 2 months. KUB, urine analysis, urine culture and diabtic tests have been done. No infections were found. I had white discharge thrice in this two months. And burning sensation after ejaculation. The problem gets worst once ejaculated.some times urine passes as two streams. One with thinnner stream and other as a drops.(not always this stream).
145992 tn?1341345074 s when all of a sudden he had the frequent urination. I feared a parasite might have been the cause but the fact that he began to go through the garbage before that shows the behavioral change during that time. So it doesn't correlate with one another. I will try to get a blood work-up early next week. He used to have cushings which he got from medication that we were giving him because he had issues with irritable bowel.

Avatar n tn Problem is hit or miss sometimes the same as my c5-c6 disk protrusion symptoms. My neurologist said the Urination problem can not be related to the disk problem. Is this true or may I have also damaged a nother part of my neck that may cause to this. Note I never had this problem until after my accident. I also got diagnosed with Occipittal Neuralgia from the hard hit and whiplash when I got up from the floor and struck a metal object broadside in back of my neck.
Avatar m tn I've had this problem for about four years now. I feel like urinatining and when I go to the bathroom, sometimes I have to force the urine out and only a little bit comes out. It's not painful and doctor's have given me lots of UTI medication so I know it's not a UTI, but trying to force the urine out really drains me it gets me weak and frustrated. The frequency and urgency to urinate is always there.
Avatar f tn I have several presentations that I have to give next week and I was hoping for some suggestions as to what I can take to help ease my anxiety. Whenever I have to give major speeches or presenations like these, I get shaky and nauseous and dizzy, and now I've realized that I'd like to take something to try and prevent it from happening again. I've been looking into it, and I've read about St. John's Wort, Valerium Root, but that's about it.
Avatar n tn (You did not mention that your a type 2 diabetic) Metformin is a great drug but has many potential interactions with other medication, herbal supplements, and over the counter products. I want you to pay close attention to the following safety comments that they put in their own literature (Pub Med Health) and count how many of the side effects listed match your complaints: "You may experience hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) while you are taking this medication.
Avatar n tn t advise you on taking any over the counter (OTC) medication. Have you tried any ice or heat to the areas that hurt? If the pain is that bad, and you need to contact the doctor anyway to find out your diagnosis, I would also let him/her know about your pain in your arms and legs. I will await your reply to my above questions. I hope you begin to feel better.
Avatar m tn Frequent urination is taking over my life. I get nerous when I'm out and don't know where the nearest bathroom is. I don't go to the movies because I can't sit throught a 2 hour movie without going to the bathroom once or twice...If I have a doctor appointment I get there early so I can go to the bathroom a couple of time before I see the doctor.My doctor said it's not a prostate problem it's a bladder problem. I get to urinate 5/6 times a night.
Avatar n tn Before my surgery I thought I had over active bladder and I was taking over active bladder pills.. After the surgery my doctor told me that my uterus was stuck to my bladder. Since then I have been having frequent urination. Sometimes 15 times a day and atleast 4 to 5 times a night. What can I do?
