Overactivity of the bladder is a common condition that crops up in old age but may appear at any age. Overactive bladder is a condition in which bladder muscles contract uncontrollably and cause frequent urination. This creates an urgent need to urinate and an inability to control urination in adults.

Both men and women can suffer from this condition, but women tend to suffer more often than men. The symptoms of this phenomenon are frequent urination both day and night and a sudden urge to urinate that is difficult to control.

In children three years of age and older, the condition known as neurogenic detrusor overactivity produces a loss of bladder control caused by brain, spinal cord, or nerve problems or multiple sclerosis.

What is Myrbetriq and what is it used for?

It is suggested not to stop or change the dose of Myrbetriq without discussing this with a doctor first. If it is halted, it may take up to ten days for it to be completely eliminated from the body; in the meantime, symptoms of overactive bladder may return or get worse.

The customarily prescribed dosage of Myrbetriq is one tablet once each time day. Taking it every day is recommended, not only when symptoms are especially bothersome. It would be best to not change this without consulting a healthcare professional. However, when about to have an extended period without access to toilets, it can be advised to skip one dose.

Bladder irritation and discomfort can come from some foods and drinks, such as citric acid, caffeinated drinks, artificial sweeteners, and hot spices. Drinks like pear and apple juice may be kinder to the bladder. It is advisable to only adjust the diet in consultation with a healthcare provider when switching to other foods.

OAB may not be curable, and Myrbetriq is addressing only the symptoms. It's important to take Myrbetriq as prescribed by the doctor, usually once each day. Most patients begin to see some relief in OAB symptoms in 4-8 weeks continuing to improve over three to four months.
