Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Myrbetriq is a brand name of drug “ mirabegron”. It is a commonly prescribed drug and it won’t cause balance disturbances. It could be due to some other causes and stroke can be a probable cause. Other possibilities are inner ear disturbances like vertigo which is common in older age group. As of now you can try betahistine tablets twice a day for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist, better to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
