Alfoo (generic name: alfuzosin) helps relax the bladder muscles to make urination easier. Stopping it can sometimes cause these muscles to tense up, potentially leading to bladder spasms or urine backing up slightly toward the kidneys, which can feel like back pain. While it could be related to your kidneys or a mild urinary infection, it is very treatable. I gently recommend checking in with your doctor or a urologist to run a simple urine test and evaluate your symptoms.

Could the back pain I get after urinating, which started after stopping the medication Alfoo, be related to my kidneys?
