Does Prilosec Causes Kidney Failure?

I have been having a lot of pressure when I need to urinate. I find myself having to hold for awhile because the sudden urge to urinate comes on very fast. I am diabetic type 2 and also take prilosec prescription form which has a warning about causing kidney problems, so what do you suggest could be the problem?
