urination

I have experienced a lack control as far as urination’s concern. Firstly, when I am in the midst of urinating, I am unable to hold back or stop halfway through. Secondly, when I feel the need to urinate I must go to the toilet immediately. I will not be able to hold back at all. I have seen Urologist and was told my PSA is normal though I have slight enlarged prostate gland. My medication: one dose Harnal 400 mcg taken before bedtime daily.

Questions:

Any side effect with parkinson's medication Sinemet, Jumax and requip by causing low blood pressure and dizzinness?

Any alternative

Dear Dr,Okun,

As the medication Harnal causes side effect with Parkinsons medication by causing low blood pressure and dizzinness. Therefore my doctor started with low dosage of Harnal 400 mcg.

I have experience of the low blood pressure of the above medications.

Dear Dr.Okun,

Lately my neurologlist changes my medication Harnal 400 mcg to Minirin 0.2 mg one dosage daily to cutdown numerous of urination as the result I have low sodium level.

I had Upright tilt table test recently. Conclusions: Asymptomic through passive tilting & given S/L GTN,Postural hypotension
168/81mmHG droped to 91/51 mmHg. Negative tilt table test

After the medication my blood pressure gone up to normal level slowly

I have cutdown numerous trips to toilet..

Kindly elaborate

All PD medications that work on the dopamine system can cause low blood pressure.

I have no specific recommendations beyond what your doctors have been doing.
