Common Questions and Answers about How fast does vesicare work

vesicare

Avatar f tn I just started on Vesicare for my annoying bladder, and I was just wondering, I was told that my bladder problem was neurological. How does this med help something that is being caused by the CNS. Also, anyone else who has this bladder problem, along with the frequency, urgency, incontinence etc, do you ever get sharp pains, tingling (I know that should be a good thing right!
1056851 tn?1318720978 I'm taking 5mg of Vesicare, too. My neuro's PA wants me to take 10mg, but it dried out my mouth too much when I tried it. It works pretty good - it's not perfect. I still get incontinence - but maybe not so often. It has also reduced my urgency and frequency, but again, it's not perfect.
Avatar m tn I was put on Vesicare 5 mg daily and also was taking fluoxetine for depression and anxiety over this condition. After taking the meds for awhile my symptoms went away and I was symptom free for 3 years. Because of the expense of the vesicare and because I was doing so well. I decided to stop taking both medications. My bladder was fine and normal and then about a year later the symtoms came back. So I am now back on the vesicare and the fluoxetine.
Avatar n tn does anyone get headaches from taking vesicare?? They seen to go away with advil. Anyone had these symptons, did they lessen with longer use of vesicare??
721523 tn?1331581802 MY thinking is you might give it a try and see how it works for you. I am on Toviaz after trying a couple different bladder meds. Since I already have a serious problem with retention and do ISC, having the drugs add to that problem was not an issue. I just tap out a few times a day to keep it calm.
5506662 tn?1369334325 I have 5 days till my due date and baby doesnt seem to want to come any time soon. The doctor said is I went to 41 weeks they would probably induce me. How exactly does that work? I thought it was just some kind of medicine they gave you through an IV but a friend said something about them sticking a needle up there. Im a little freaked out, could someone please explain it to me?
Avatar m tn I have been using VESICARE for some time now, it does decrease the number of visit to the bathroom, however when you stop using it...the problem comes back. Its like it just manages the active bladder but doesn't cure it. Been using it for more than 2 years now.
1188179 tn?1350116119 I have been on Ditropan, then Ditropan XR (or EX, don't remember which is correct) and after about 10 years that didn't work, so my doctor put me on Enablex and that works pretty well. Then I got a new Dr. and he wanted to switch me to Vesicare. That didn't work well, either, and I began having episodes of incontinence and urgency again. It's almost open enrollment for Medicare Part D, and the plan that is the most affordable otherwise doesn't cover Enablex at all anymore.
Avatar m tn which meant I had to return to my urologist....He gave me elmiron and vesicare to treat the IC....the Elmiron never helped my pain and, the Vesicare took my blood pressure from 113/72 pulse 68 to 153/103 pulse 122...I contacted my urologist and, he stated...that's not true ... neither of these meds would cause your blood pressure to go up...well, I called him back four days later...
Avatar n tn I am a 23 year old female who has the constant urge to urinate on and off for two months now. Various doctors have checked for a UTI and there is none. I have been on macrobid, vesicare and now I'm on flavoxate. Each of these medicines have worked for about a week and then I get the constant urge to urinate again. I just started the flavoxate and I have not gotten any relief. I'm not in any pain, but the constant urge to urinate seems painful and is affected my daily life greatly.
Avatar n tn d recommend anyway. Talk to your urologist about going off the Vesicare and see how you do. If it WAS just the anxiety and excitement surrounding the trip, you'll know soon enough. As for the anxiety and depression, just make sure your doctors are aware that you intend to try getting pregnant. Some medications you need to be off for several months before attempting pregnancy. Hopefully you can deal with both these issues in your therapy and not need meds.
Avatar m tn t look like blisters anymore 9 days since I last took the valocyvir. Does this med work that fast and once there is formation of blisters will they always pop or can the medicine prevent this even though I only took it for 2 days?.
Avatar f tn I am new to the forum as I have just been diagnosed with a 17mm herniation and a syrinx. My question is how fast does this progress because every day I feel worse. I no longer work because I shake so bad and get so dizzy. Do people still work with all the symptoms? I feel like head is going to blow!
Avatar m tn I'm using Vesicare and Lyrica and I just got my urinalysis result and they're normal. Can Vesicare and Lyrica affect urinalysis? Are they antibiotics?
Avatar m tn Started me on Levaquin 500mg PO QD x 7 days and Vesicare 10mg PO QD.The cyst went down but the pain around the epdidymis persisted w/ no change. After 4 weeks of Vesicare I still have no change in my nocturia. I had an ultrasound of my bladder, testicles, kidneys all normal. I then had a cystoscopy done which showed no abnormalities besides a tight sphincter. My urologist told me to continue the Vesicare which I have been doing.
Avatar f tn How long does it typically take for food to digest? I ate some corn less than an hour - half ago and it has already appeared in my stool.
Avatar f tn I don't know about Methadone, Susie but I had the same problem. I've been on Hydromorphone (Dilaudidi) and Morphine ER postoperatively for knee surgery. It was so bad that the urine would actually start running down my legs before I could get to the bathroom. It had started out as OAB (overactive bladder) and got progressively worse. It was a real dilemna because with the post op pain I couldn't move fast, but the urgency required me to move fast.
