"Has reduced urgency incontinence, frequency, and nocturia by about 50% in the 3 months of intake and is an improvement over mirabegron. Some dry mouth with it but much less than the anticholinergics."

"Effective medication, but VERY costly. Even with excellent health insurance, cost is $2/day. (Hoping for a generic version, to bring the cost down.)"

"The medication worked quite well and I was pleased with its efficiency…the downside was constipation. The constipation was problematic enough for me to discontinue taking the drug."
