### Human:\nmy urologist put me on doxazosin for urinary incontinence. why did she ask my doctor to take the hct out of my benicar?\n\n### Assistant: she most likely suggested stopping the hct part of the benicar since the hct refers to hydrochlorothiazide a diuretic that helps lower blood pressure by acting as a water pill. the effects of a water pill can bring on or worsen urinary incontinence since it makes you have to urinate more often.
