Vesizen Tablets 5 mg

Who is this for?

Solifenacin succinate is a medicine that relaxes the muscles of your bladder, helping it hold more urine and reducing the sudden, strong urge to urinate frequently.

Blocks muscarinic M3 receptors on detrusor muscle in the bladder, reducing involuntary contractions and increasing bladder capacity. This anticholinergic action decreases urinary frequency, urgency, and incontinence episodes associated with overactive bladder.

Is Solifenacin safe to take with another drug?

Take one tablet (usually 5 mg) once daily, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water — do not crush or chew it. Your doctor may increase your dose to 10 mg once daily if 5 mg is not working well enough.

If you miss a dose, skip it and take your next dose at the usual time the next day. Do not take two tablets together to make up for a missed dose.

• Dry mouth
• constipation (difficulty passing stool)
• blurred vision
• stomach upset
• and dry eyes.

Avoid taking with ketoconazole (antifungal) as it can increase solifenacin levels dangerously. Be cautious with other medicines that cause dry mouth or constipation such as some antihistamines. Alcohol can increase dizziness and drowsiness when combined with this drug.

Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C — away from direct sunlight and humidity. Keep the tablets in their original pack and far from the reach of children.
