Treatment of overactive bladder symptoms (e.g., urinary frequency and urgency)
This medication is used to alleviate symptoms of overactive bladder, including urge incontinence, frequency, and urgency. These symptoms can include a sudden urge to urinate that is difficult to resist, causing significant inconvenience in daily life. This medication improves symptoms by controlling bladder muscle tension and reduces frequent urination and urgency, thereby enhancing the quality of life. Hence, it is effectively used for symptoms of overactive bladder.
