Here is what this informational site has reported:

http://www.drugcite.com/?q=Lyrica

While bladder incontinence is not listed per se, it could fall under other category... neurological.

Not a "fun" side effect at all. The decongestant family...has been used for urinary incontinence in animals. Phenylpropanolamine specifically. But that is no longer FDA approved for humans.

Pseudoephedrine is close... if you can tolerate the side effects you might try it to see if it helps the bladder sphincter get tighter. You have to ask for it now at most pharmacies and sign for it as it is now controlled to minimize methamphetamine labs' access.
