Respected Sir/Madam
Thanks for your query to us.
1. No, the incontinence is not a direct effect of torsinex.
2. Yes, torsinex is associated with excessive urine formation as it is the main effect of this drug belonging to diuretic class.
Some patient may develop incontinence when excessive urine is formed but that depends upon patient profile which is not available in your query. Neither it is clear that why he was given torsinex therapy. He should be seen by a neurologist as well as urologist for this issue.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
