Hi I was on a course of steroids (prednisolone) last week to deal with elevated asthma symptoms, I was also put on a new inhaler fostair, I completed taking the steroids on Wednesday last week and have been taking the fostair as directed by my GP, yesterday I had a lot of wheezing so took my ventolin twice. Last night I experienced some urinary incontinence whilst sleeping, it woke me almost instantly but it was already too late. Im a 28 year old female who is fit and healthy and takes regular exercise. So this is worrying
Ventolin is albuterol a potent muscle relaxant and bronchodilator. With its use one can probably experience some smooth muscle relaxation that can lead to urinary incontinence, so there is no big fear of a new worry but just a side effect of the treatment for your asthma considering your age of 28-year-old who is fit, healthy and takes regular exerciseThanks Chat Doctor.
