OCD problem
Hi sir/mam,
I am diagnosed with OCD recently. Doctor has prescribed uvox cr 100 at bed time, respigrace ls at bed time and clonotril 0.5 mg at day time and night . It's been day 2 of taking them. After taking them I m constantly urinating. I am urinating 10-12 time a day. Small small urine is passing and 5 times at night. What should I do? Pls help me. Will this sideffect go away or it's permanent
Hello,
Frequent urination can occur as a side effect of fluvoxamine (Uvox CR), and, less commonly, with clonazepam (Clonotril) or certain antipsychotics found in Respigrace LS. In most cases, such urinary symptoms are transient in the initial days of therapy and often improve as the body adjusts.
Next Steps
a. Contact your prescribing physician to discuss the urinary symptoms, especially if they persist beyond a few days, worsen, or are affecting quality of life. The doctor may recommend monitoring, dose adjustment, medication change, or a brief evaluation to rule out urinary tract infection or other causes.
b. Do not stop or adjust the medication without medical supervision, as abrupt discontinuation may exacerbate OCD symptoms or cause withdrawal.

Health Tips
a. These urinary symptoms are commonly not permanent- most resolve spontaneously or with minor dose/timing adjustments.
b. Maintain adequate hydration and monitor for signs of infection (pain, burning, blood in urine, fever). If these symptoms occur, seek urgent medical advice.
c. If experiencing additional side effects such as confusion, agitation, or severe discomfort, notify the doctor immediately.
d. Always communicate new or bothersome side effects, and never stop psychiatric medications suddenly without medical consultation.

Hi,
I understand your worry. Frequent urination can happen when starting new medicines, especially those affecting anxiety and serotonin. For most, this side effect eases as the body adjusts.
10–12 times daily and 5 times nightly is significant. Please contact your prescribing doctor right away. They may adjust dose, change timing, or check for other causes. Do not stop on your own, but don’t ignore it either. Your safety and comfort come first.
Next Steps
Contact your psychiatrist
Health Tips
Track symptoms daily (urination, sleep, mood).
Hydrate smartly: drink earlier in the day, limit fluids near bedtime.
Calm body: light breathing or grounding to ease anxiety-driven urges.
Share honestly with your doctor—don’t downplay.
Be patient: early side effects often settle in 1–2 weeks.

Hey
The best step is to contact your prescribing doctor right away and explain the frequency and pattern. Do not stop the medicine on your own, but do not wait too long either. Your doctor may adjust the dose, change the timing, or check if another issue is contributing.
