Tolterodine is an antimuscarinic agent used in the treatment of overactive bladder, characterized by symptoms such as frequent urination, urinary urgency, and urinary incontinence. It works by blocking muscarinic receptors in the detrusor muscle of the bladder, reducing involuntary contractions and increasing bladder capacity.
Tolterodine is administered orally, usually once or twice daily, with the dose adjusted based on patient response and tolerability. It is available in immediate-release or extended-release tablet forms.
Common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, headache, and blurred vision. In rare cases, severe adverse reactions such as urinary retention or allergic reactions may occur. It is important for patients to follow the recommended dosage and inform their doctor of any side effects.
Tolterodine is an effective therapeutic option for managing overactive bladder symptoms, contributing to improved quality of life for patients.
