I've been dealing with a dry mouth and a burning sensation when I urinate since I started taking eptoin for a stroke I had a few months ago. I'm also diabetic, so Im not sure if it's a side effect of the medication or related to my sugar levels. Should I be concerned about these symptoms?

It seems that the dry mouth and burning micturition youre experiencing could be related to either your Eptoin medication or your diabetes. While these can be side effects of Eptoin, they could also be exacerbated by high blood sugar or a UTI. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider to review these symptoms and make adjustments to your treatment plan as necessary. Regular monitoring of your blood sugar and maintaining hydration can help manage some of these symptoms as well.
