Hello,
Thank you for asking your question at health care magic.
Increased urinary frequency and retention are side effects of cyclobenzaprine.
It is due to the anticholinergic effect of the drug resulting in urinary retention,incomplete voiding and frequent urination.
I recommend that you consult your doctor to see if you can discontinue the drug/ any other medication is appropriate for you
Hope I was able to answer your question
Please feel free to address any more concerns
Regards,
Dr.Lekshmi
