What Causes Frequent Urination And Tingling Urethra Post Intake Of Chantix?

I m a long time smoker. I used Chantix before in the past and quit for 3 years. I am back on Chantix and have notice a strong smell coming from my urine and also have noticed frequent urination during the night. I was also feeling a tingling sensation in my urethra when urinating. These symptoms came on within a week of starting Chantix and I don t recall these symptoms last time. Is this a side effect of an infection? Thank you
