A decrease in the strength of your urine stream can be caused by certain medications that affect the bladder's ability to empty properly.
Certain medications can cause problems with how your bladder works, making it hard for you to pee with a strong stream. This is called urinary retention. Some drugs that can cause this include those used for pain, like tramadol, and other medications that can affect your bladder's ability to squeeze out urine.
If you notice changes in your urine stream, it might be helpful to check with your doctor to see if any medicines you're taking could be the cause. They can help you find the best way to manage this issue.
