Members discussed whether Prolia increases the risk of bladder infections, with most sharing that they have not experienced UTIs while on the medication, though one member reported developing a severe infection after their third injection following 15 years without one. Several members emphasized practical prevention strategies, including drinking 2 to 3 quarts of water daily, avoiding caffeine (particularly coffee), and staying mindful that dehydration can make infections more likely. A recurring theme was awareness that urinary tract infections are listed as a possible side effect of Prolia, and that the medication may affect the immune system, making vigilance and hydration even more important.
