[|Human|] Hi there, I have been battling what I believe to be bronchitis for about 10ish days now. I am on Clarithromycin and am experiencing severe bladder incontinence! I have been coughing and peeing, but now also when I am just standing urine will just leak out. Would the clarithromycin have anything to do with this? I m just wondering when my antibiotics are done, will this improve? Thank you.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No azithromycin can not cause urinary incontinence. Constant coughing cancer cause urinary incontinence. Coughing causes rise in intro abdominal pressure and this can cause incontinence. So if we treat your cough, your urinary incontinence will also treat by itself. Bronchitis needs inhaled treatment, and you are not taking it, so you are not improving. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. PUT (pulmonary function test). PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will need inhaled bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
