VESIcare helps reduce frequent urges and may even help relieve embarrassing leaks.
Normally, a person feels the need to go to the bathroom when the bladder becomes full. The brain signals the muscles in the bladder to contract and begin the flow of urine. However, for those who have certain bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency, or leakage), the muscles in the bladder work overtime - contracting when the bladder isn't even full, and without advance warning. This causes those frequent, strong, sudden urges - and for some, may even result in leakage.
VESIcare works by helping to block certain signals to the bladder so that your urges may occur less frequently and you may leak less. VESIcare has been proven to reduce urges, and may even help relieve bladder leakage.
Keep in mind that only your doctor can diagnose you and work with you to determine the best course of action.
Important Safety Information
VESIcare is for urgency, frequency, and leakage (overactive bladder). VESIcare is not for everyone. If you have certain types of stomach, urinary, or glaucoma problems, do not take VESIcare. While taking VESIcare, if you experience a serious allergic reaction, severe abdominal pain, or become constipated for three or more days, tell your doctor right away. In studies, common side effects were dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and indigestion.
