Prednisone And UTI
I immediately got what I thought was a UTI after getting prescribed prednisone after a RA flare. Iβve been on antibiotics for 3 days and Iβm still having problems emptying my bladder all the way. Itβs miserable as we are driving and will be on the road for two days. Do I need to worry? Is this a normal side effect of prednisone that will go away after Iβm off it?
I have been on prednisone for a while too Drink lots of water and your problem should clear up I drink anywhere from one to two gallons of water every day so i go very often to the bathroom. I make a juice out of lemons, oranges and ginger roots. Boil them in a big pot for about two hours. let it cool and sting it out. I put about one half cup in every glass of my water. Now i have been drinking this for 5 years now and if nothing else I have not had a cold or flu since It is not very good taste but you will get use to it lol it real sour but i stop doing sugar so that's good to me
Prednisone makes you at risk for UTIs ,bladder and vaginal infections and thrush but needs treatment
Sometimes UTI can still be in your system, I hope you were able to talk to your doctor. If your lab show no UTI, talk to your OB, it could be from needing estrogen cream.
Hi Maki,
I have experienced this while taking prednisone. It usually goes away when I stop taking the medication. Drinks lots of water it definitely helps. Hope you feel better soon π
